"Behind the Scenes" Hillwood tour, 1995

The Photographic Slides and Negatives collection is an amalgamation of transparency formats from the archives at Hillwood. Some items were found in the collection with a difficult-to-trace provenance, while others were not easily discoverable in their previous arrangement. This collection was created to increase discoverability and access to the images.

Transparency formats include a variety of color slides, black and white negatives in several sizes, and a few color negatives. Image contents mostly revolve around Marjorie Merriweather Post and her residences, family, collection, and various events she hosted or attended.

Much of the collection has been digitized.
