- This is a collection of Lansing and regional photographic prints and negatives assembled by David Caterino. Image subjects represent a wide cross-reference of people, buildings, scenery, and events. Most are identified. They have been grouped into 27 subject series (list below) that were established by the collector. Series 27, Lansing Photographers, consists mainly of unidentified studio portraits gathered primarily to identify early Lansing photographers. The subjects of the photographs in those boxes is less significant than the photographers' stamps on cabinet cards and other formats. Most of the information is complementary to research published by David V. Tinder, available online <a href="http://clements.umich.edu/eadadd/tinder_directory.pdf">here</a>.
