The survey on the Belmont School in Grand Forks, N.D. includes a written report (30 leaves) with an identification log of the photographs included, followed by copy photographic prints of the exterior and interior of the school. The report includes sections devoted to physical history, historical context, architectural information, sources of information, and project information. It also includes reproductions of six photographs and copies of the Sanborn Fire Insurance Company maps for the building and drawings of the building’s three floors. This is followed by a short description of each of the images in the collection. The photograph collection consists of fifty-five 4 x 5 in. copy prints showing contemporary views of the exterior and interior of the building, including architectural details.
The photographs were taken by Bruce Judd and Monica Griesbach. The header for the prints states the negatives are held at the University of North Dakota, but the transmittal letter states the original negatives are held at the State Historical Society of North Dakota.
