Simone Lippe took the majority of the color slides. The slides include some site photography as well as landscapes, people, festivals and general views. The slides were originally housed in metal slide boxes that also contained some notes about the contents. At some point the slides were transferred to other boxes. Although the notes were kept with the slides, the slides were no longer in the same order. Box 41 contains the notes found with the slides and indicates the present location of those slides. Only some of the slides are labeled. Slides are organized alphabetically by site when the site is identified. Some slides were in an album. [Box 54 Bins 11-20, Box 55 Bins 1-5 and Box 56]
