Scope and Content

From the Collection: The collection consists mainly of photographs of University of New Mexico buildings: Hodgin Hall, Hadley Hall (ruins, after 1910), UNM architectural display building at the Irrigation Congress (1912), architectural drawings for a proposed dormitory by Roberts & Thorman, interior (Dean Hodgin's living quarters?) Also included is a photomechanical reproduction of a page of photographic vignettes, probably a class picture for the UNM student yearbook the Mirage (c. 1910) possibly showing Dean Hodgin and education students. Another UNM photo is an aerial view of the campus showing what appears to be a large sports field with Hodgin Hall and other buildings at a distance, set among barren areas and unpaved roads. Other photographs are of a man wearing a top hat and riding a burro (c. 1880-1909), three unidentified marble statuettes of nudes, and a night view of the Capitol rotunda in Washington, D.C.
