Series Description
Arranged by format, this series contains negatives, photographs, contact sheets, and color transparencies collected by Wil Lepkowski. The materials consist of images taken by the American Chemical Society, portraits, slides from presentations, and photographs from the International Conference on Industrial Crisis Management, which was held in September 1986. There is also a small, but notable, amount of 35 mm color transparencies paired with notes by Wil Lepkowski. It is unclear if these images were taken by Wil Lepkowski or sent to him.
Most of the images in this series were captured or developed between 1986-1988. Notes that accompany the images have been photocopied. Some black and white images and contact sheets are fused together and cannot be separated.
