 File — Box: 8, Folder: 1

Scope and Contents note

From the Series:

This series contains photographs of the Huxley and Baillot families, as well as photographs of friends, places, structures, and wildlife. There are 3 subseries within this series: Albums, Loose Photographs, and Negatives. Within the Loose Photographs subseries appear to be 9 sub-subseries: JSH; JSH & MJH; Family; Friends; Places (or Travel); Wildlife; Artistic; Structures; and Oversize. Many of the Travel photographs appear to have been taken in connection with Huxley’s association with UNESCO.

The first 4 boxes in this Series consist of 28 photo albums. Many of the Albums were given numbers by the creator or donor. There are Albums 101-105 and 1-22 (with #s 2, 4, 5, 12, and 18 missing, and two # 13’s). All of the photographs in Albums 20, 21, and 22 are loose. Many of those in Album 1, Album 10 and Album 101 have lost their glue. Album 101 also contains a table of contents on the first page. Albums 3 and 9 have packages of negatives in the front. The albums have been arranged chronologically.

JSH, MJH, other Huxleys, Baillots, and Huxley friends are included in at least two of the packages of miscellaneous negatives in Box 17, one of those in Box 18, and one of those in Box 20.
