Sub-series Description
Arranged alphabetically, this sub-series contains photographs collected by Norman G. Anderson. A majority of the images in these files are of Norman G. Anderson himself and several members of his family, including his daughter Elizabeth Anderson, his son N. Leigh Anderson, and his wife Mary Lloyd Anderson. A smaller, but noticeable, number of images of awards given to Norman G. Anderson, N. Leigh Anderson, and to Union Carbide Corporation (for instruments invented by Norman G. Anderson) are also found in this sub-series. Photographs of a few places visited by the Anderson Family (including Charleston, South Carolina and Spain) and Large Scale Biology Corporation’s laboratory and equipment are also present here. A small number of images of a handful of miscellaneous subjects, including unidentified people and places, are preserved in this sub-series as well.
Color photographs and black and white photographs make up the bulk of the materials found in this sub-series. Two sepia photographs and a black and white photocopied image are preserved here as well.
