The photographs are arranged in by Signal Corps print number, which are approximately chronological, though there are occasional discrepancies. The collection contains only a portion of all photos taken by the Signal Corps. The listing below includes only descriptions of prints in Bentley Library's Signal Corps collection. There is one folder of unnumbered photos. Most of the numbered photos are 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" prints, but there are 41 prints 10 3/4" x 13 3/4" in size.
