| Artists/Makers | Chicago Daily News, Inc., (photographer) |
| Date | circa 1901-1973 |
| Description | Collection of black and white photographic negatives created by staff photographers of the Chicago Daily News. Primarily contains images of events, people, and activities in the Chicago area as well as national events that held a local interest. Topics include civic ceremonies, public demonstrations, court cases, festivals, ethnic celebrations, and persons in the news, especially politicians, local celebrities, and criminals. Also shows street scenes, commercial and domestic buildings and construction, and members of the ethnic groups prominent in Chicago's population. Sports negatives relate to amateur and professional sporting events and athletes as well as to leisure activities, sports facilities, and spectators. Approximately 15-20% of the images in this collection were published in the Chicago Daily News; however, most images are not dated or labeled specifically enough to identify the issue of the newspaper in which they appeared. Most of the collection is divided between glass plate negatives and flexible film negatives and arranged by the identification number assigned to the negatives by staff of the Chicago Daily News, roughly in chronological order. The regular news negatives are labeled DN, and the negatives categorized by the Chicago Daily News staff under "Sports" are labeled SDN. There are many gaps in the collection indicated by gaps in the original identification numbers. The collection contains mostly 4 x 5 in. film negatives. However the collection includes ca. 82,974 glass plate negatives. Of the glass plate negatives, ca. 243 are 8 x 10 in. and ca. 17,731 are 5 x 7 inches. The collection also includes many 120 mm. film negatives and ca. 10,500 35 mm. negatives. |
