Collection Overview

Collection Description & Creator Information

Scope and Contents

This series consists of negatives, contact sheets, color transparencies (slides), manuscripts, research, interviews, correspondence, and reviews for Douglas Kent Hall's published photography books. Hall published fine art photography books, illustrated histories, and instructional manuals illustrated with photographs for demonstration.

Some series of photographs were used for more than publication, as is the case with the prison photographs used as source material for both In Prison and Prison Tattoos. Hall would also reprint images for exhibitions many years after they were initially photographed, as is the case with the Rock and Roll series initially created in the 1960s and 1970s, but reprinted in the 1990s and 2000s. For this reason contact sheets, negatives and transparencies are arranged with the first publication that they appeared in or were compiled for.
