Scope and Contents:
There are only a few photographs of de Laguna; they range from her days as a student to her later years.

St. Elias; copies of prints from the Harriman Alaska Expedition; and photographs taken by Harlan I. Smith of prehistoric relics from New Brunswich in the National History Museum of Canada. The negatives are stored separately from the rest of the photographs.
Collection Restrictions:
