Photographs, blueprints, and overized material, 1928 - 1942 May Be Restricted

This series is organized by format. The group of photographs contain the images of the ophthalmological apparatus developed and used by the Dartmouth Eye Institute, of DEI staff members and of awards won by Adelbert Ames, Jr. and other DEI members. There are some negatives with their respective photographs. The photographs vary in size from 3″×4″ to 8″×10″. The photographs are arranged alphabetically by name. The majority of the blueprints are of the testing apparatus developed by DEI staff. Included in the oversize materials are several items which have been retained for exhibition purposes: a wooden sign from the DEI Clinic; a photostat chart showing research activity at the DEI for the years 1929 - 1940; and an illustration demonstrating eye testing for characteristics such as peripheral fusion using special projectors and a tangent projection screen.
