- Scope and Contents
- Subseries 2.1: Photo Albums, 1906-1934, undated, is arranged alphabetically by subject and contains photographic albums created by Lockwood Greene. The albums organize photographs by building typology, project name, or the originating branch office within the company. Linen-backed photographic prints depict interior and exterior views of industrial buildings, offices, workers' housing, and other structures designed by the firm, as well as views of machinery and laborers at work. Items are occasionally accompanied by narrative text, statistics, or job cost data. Two albums contain pages from promotional calendars that were distributed to clients and field offices. Researchers searching for specific companies, projects or sites are advised that material may be found in multiple albums. Of particular note are four albums from the Architectural Department at Lockwood Greene containing photographic reproductions of architectural renderings, including work by renowned illustrator Hugh Ferriss. The covers for the photograph albums have been retained; see Series 2, Subseries 2.9.
