- Description:
- This collection contains representative photography from several Lansing studios and photographers, mostly dated from the late 19th to mid 20th centuries. The subjects of the photography usually are not identified. The collection was originally assembled by David Caterino, with ongoing additions made by Local History staff from donations and other collection processing. The container list for this collection shows names of all studios and photographers for which photos or studio enclosures are included. Additional information about the studios is taken from the "Directory of Early Michigan Photographers" by David V. Tinder (c. 2013), which indexes photography studios in Michigan from the earliest to 1931.

- Description:
- Records of the Lansing Camera Club. From a 50th anniversary club history in the collection: "The Lansing Camera Club was organized in 1926 and has had a distinguished history for 50 years. At the start, print makers were admitted to membership on presentation of an acceptable print. A Women's Camera Club, organized in 1932, disbanded when most of its members joined the Men's Camera Club in 1939. Meetings were held at first in the Downey Hotel. By 1942 they were meeting over Linn's Camera Shop. They were meeting at the Hayford Fire Station in 1952 when colored slides were first introduced into the competitions. When Scott Center was opened for meetings, this Club was one of its first tenants, and it has been our home since. Competition was always keen and since earliest days, members have entered salons all over the country and received many honors. Lansing Camera Club became a charter member of both the Photographic Society of America and of the Southwestern Michigan Council of Camera Clubs. The Club is one of only several clubs still holding the distinction of being a charter member of the Photographic Society of America...."
