Long Island Daily Press Photograph Morgue Collection

The Long Island Daily Press Photograph Morgue Collection consists of photographs, drawings and maps that were made to illustrate news stories and feature articles published in the Long Island Daily Press newspaper. Most of the photographs were taken by staff photographers employed by the Press. A smaller number were taken by freelance photographers, by news services such as Associated Press, or by photographers employed by the public relations departments of various companies and organizations. In addition to the photographs there are also drawings of proposed buildings that were made by various architectural firms, and maps that were drawn by illustrators on the Press staff.
