| 2013.243.1941 | Towns Family Slides |
|
| Photos. Slides, 223 total including 35 glass slides. Images donated by the Towns family of GCI: family, friends, homes, landscapes, and seascapes taken over decades.

The Towns property is also known historically as the Bayview Farm, the Red House, and the Crosby farm. (The slides are stored in a binder, grouped by brand names and numbers imprinted on individual slides: Kodachrome, Ektachrome, Ansco Color, Pavelle, and Mercury, in hopes slide technology might date these slides. Glass slide projectors in use ca. 1930s-1950s. (See also collection of Towns slides ca. 1960s-70s in 2014.269.2005; and other Towns photos in collection.) |
