92 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 1959 
One hundred such lists relating to specific tribes and subjects are now 
available. 
The Bureau has been fortunate in receiving the cooperation of 
several collectors of photographs that have ethnological and histori- 
cal value. Some of the collectors lent their pictures for copying, 
while others gave their prints to the Bureau, thus insuring their pres- 
ervation and making them available to students. 
An important collection of over 115 negatives of Seminole Indians 
made by Charles Barney Cory, Sr., in Florida in the period 1877-95 
was lent by Mrs. Zelma Carolyn Cory of Homewood, Il., and 
Charles Barney Cory of Madison, Ill., through Alan R. Sawyer of the 
Art Institute of Chicago. Enlarged prints from these negatives are 
on file for reference at the Bureau. In addition, a group of 28 origi- 
nal and postcard prints by various photographers, collected by 
Charles Barney Cory in Florida and in the West, and relating to the 
Seminole, Shoshoni, Bannock, Paiute, Dakota, and other western 
tribes, was lent by Mr. Sawyer for copying. 
A collection of 65 photographs of Seminole Indians, made by Wil- 
liam D. Boehmer, Dwight R. Gardin, and others, was lent for copying 
by William D. Boehmer, educational field agent, Seminole Indian 
Agency, Okeechobee, Fla. 
A series of 21 negatives, prints, and postcard reproductions relating 
to the Seminole Indians, made and collected by the photographer, 
C. N. Dutton, in the first decade of the 20th century, was lent for 
copying by Louis Capron, West Palm Beach, Fla., together with 4 
Seminole photographs made by Capron in the 1930’s. 
A collection of 115 prints of Indians of the Dakota, Chippewa, 
Winnebago, Paiute, Crow, Apache, and other tribes, made by com- 
mercial photographers in the latter half of the 19th century, was 
donated by G. Hubert Smith of Lincoln, Nebr. In addition, several 
early stereographs of Minnesota Indian subjects were lent by him for 
copying. 
A microfilm of the South Dakota Historical Society’s collection of 
about 400 photographic prints relating to Western Indian history and 
Indian wars, along with a transcript of the accompanying caption 
material, was made available to the Bureau, through the courtesy of 
James Tubbesing of Winchester, Va., who made the film. A ref- 
erence set of enlarged prints has been made of about 130 subjects se- 
lected from the series because they supplement or document photo- 
graphs already in the Bureaw’s collections. 
A series of commercial photographs, including 17 by H. Bueh- 
mann, Tucson, Arizona Territory, relating to the Apache Indians, 
and 9 by J. N. Choate, Carlisle, Pa., showing students at the Indian 
School at Carlisle, was received by transfer from the Department of 
Civil History, Smithsonian Institution.
