- Description:
- This is a collection of 161 3.25" x 4" glass slides featuring interior shots of several Lansing schools, primarily of classrooms full of students with one or more teachers. The slides were divided into 16 boxes each labeled with a school name. On one of the boxes the year 1919 was written, but many of the images show calendars on the wall with either February or March, 1926, displayed. Valentine decorations are present in some of the classrooms. The custodial history of this collection in combination with the available details in each image make it hard to know whether the organization into the different school boxes remained accurate at the time of donation. None of the students or teachers are identified and there is nothing to identify the schools in the photographs either, so descriptions are based on the boxes they arrived in, in 2019. Many classrooms show students assumed to be of African-American or Syrian descent, which would be in keeping with migration to Lansing in the early 20th century.
