  • "Maples. 205 Normal Street, Ypsilanti. 1938"

    Photograph of maple trees taken on Normal Street Ypsilanti, Michigan. The trees grow on the curb strip next to the sidewalk. The trees are barren of foliage. Houses can be seen to the right of the trees. Jefferson would often use the same negative to create a lantern slide as well as a mounted stereographic card. When possible we have indicated if it is a repeat image, however this is not always the case. As such, there may be a corresponding digitized glass lantern slide, and a mounted stereographic card associated with this stereographic negative within the Mark Jefferson Collection.
