It also contains a digital file on CD of typed letters he wrote home during World War II, lecture notes for classes he taught on the history of building, and audio recordings of his lectures on cassette tapes. The bulk is made up of 35mm slides used in classes (largely stock photographs of notable buildings), as well as slides of personal photographs.
