Index to Black and White Photograph Files

This series is an electronic index to the black and white photographs submitted to national headquarters by the 10 major and various related research and space flight centers around the country. The index includes: the national-headquarters-assigned black and white image identification citation (under the column ent itled "BW ID"); the narrative caption (under "Label"); the subject classification; the identity of the facility from which the image originated; and the media and formats.

The database includes 14 fields for the identification of media and formats; a "1" entered in any of these fields indicates that the image being indexed is available in that particular media or format. Also included are 14 summary fields containing the total item count for each respective media or format. In instances where the black and white image was made from a color original, there will also be a color image identification citation (under "Color ID").
