 Item — Box: 1

Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The photograph album was discovered on Ebay and purchased for the Institute for Regional Studies Archives collection with funds from the Dick Kloubec Endowment. The album contains 191 snapshot photographs pasted onto the album pages. The original owner of the album was unknown, however some vague identifications on a few of the photographs point to the album belonging to Dr. Paul F. Rice, or one of his family members. The photographs appear to have been taken between 1910 and 1913. They cover various geographic locations in Sioux and Morton Counties in North Dakota, including the towns of Cannon Ball, Fort Yates, Mandan, Shields, Porcupine. A number of the photographs feature photographs of Native Americans dressed in full regalia at the Fort Yates Fair in 1912. There is also a set of photographs taken during the dedication of Fort Rice Historic Site in July 1913. There are also images of the Missouri River, automobiles, bridges, landscapes, various churches, homes, buildings, and what appears to be family photographs.
