Biographical Note

Elmer J. Edwards accompanied his father on his business travels from their home in San Antonio through Texas during the mid-1930s. Most of the photographs in this collection were taken during those travels.

Scope and Contents

The 192-page photograph album of Elmer J. Edwards contains approximately 3,460 images from the mid-1930s. These snapshots by Edwards, an amateur photographer, portray small towns in Texas and contiguous states and street scenes of San Antonio and Austin, Texas. The photographer focused primarily on public buildings and other civic structures. Also included are pictures of parades and speeches, family friends, well-known personalities such as Adina De Zavala, and aerial views.

These boxes contain loose pages from the original scrapbook. A transcription of Mr. Edwards' typed labels, with some corrections, is provided here because the originals that remain legible are deteriorating. Missing page numbers indicate that no labels exist for those pages.
