“The Edward Weston Archive, which was acquired by the Center for Creative Photography in 1981, contains materials preserved by at least four generations of the Weston family. It contains items dating from the 1870s, saved by Weston's parents and grandparents, and documentation of his own life, which Weston preserved and which was safeguarded after his death by his four sons, Chandler, Brett, Neil, and Cole. The letters, daybooks, manuscripts, financial records, memorabilia, photographs, and negatives in the archive represent the largest and most complete collection of materials about Edward Weston, his life, and his photography. Nearly four linear feet of correspondence, over 1,000 pages of the original daybooks, over 10,000 negatives, and close to 3,000 photographs are available to research.” (From the introduction to the Guide series, no. 13.) This volume contains the inventory for the Center for Creative Photography’s Edward Weston Archive, introduced and compiled by Amy Stark, Photographic Archives Librarian.Type
