" The photographs are from Mr. Brown's lifetime collection of original photographs, postcards, advertisements, news articles, and other items which chronicle the history of Ames, Iowa. This is a unique collection and will only be added to as newly-cataloged material from Mr. Brown's photographs are processed. Because of this, the user will find that, though the dates of the photographs range from the 1860s through the 1990s, the greatest numbers are from the 1900s through the 1930s. All the photographs are described and have been cataloged according to dates and subjects. Newly-digitized photographs will be added here as they are cataloged."
