Subseries 2: Kodachrome Slides.

General note

Most of the slides are numbered by Marsh in ink ranging from 001 to 589. Numbers represent categories of subjects rather than discrete numbers for each slide. For example, many slides of a wide variety of roses share the same number. Slides are filed in boxes in numerical order with identifying numbered tabs to facilitate searches. Missing numbers are identified. Unnumbered slides were organized by Marsh according to subject and filed separately from the numbered series. He included some numbered slides in the subject file which may account for "missing" numbers.
