Eudora Welty Collection Series 27. Welty Prints Z/0301.000/S/Series 27

This series consists of photographic prints and exhibition-quality enlargements of negatives created by Eudora Welty. One group of enlargements is available as a set of digital files. In 1936, the Photographic Galleries of Lugene, Inc., Opticians, New York City, sponsored a one-woman show of forty-five of Welty's photographs. The twenty-nine photographic enlargements of Mississippi subjects in this exhibit were printed in the 1930s from their respective original negatives in Series 26. Some of these prints bear the handwritten titles and notes of Welty and others on both sides, as well as Welty's penciled enhancements of the printed images.
