Subseries C5: Todd Webb Photographic Negatives,, 1964 - 1966

 Sub-Series

Scope and Content of the collection

Several indices are available to all Todd Webb negatives, including searchable electronic resources (see below). Photographic negative size formats consist of 120 mm, 4x5 inch, 5x7 inch, and 8x10 inch black and white negatives shot by Todd Webb in 1966. He recorded 3,609 frames. When working with 120 mm film rolls, Webb often captured 9 or 12 image frames per roll.

Negatives are arranged sequentially by Amon Carter Museum accession number. The ACM number incorporates the roll and frame number of every image. The 120 mm roll film negatives were given accession numbers in the range (P1977.12.1-302), but individual negatives are identified by the additional suffix number 1 through 9, which corresponds to the handwritten number present on the contact sheets (for example P1977.12.136.8 refers to Roll #136, Frame 8). Larger format negatives have been assigned these accession numbers: P1977.12.303-326 (8x10 inch), P1977.12.327-681 (5x7 inch), and P1977.12.682-819 (4x5 inch). The photographic negatives are not stored in alphabetical order by city, but in sequence by Amon Carter accession number.
