Jackhammers in use. [1:3], undated
File — Box: 51, Folder: 9
Scope and Contents
From the Sub-Series:
Many of the photographs pertain to Medieval sculpture and architectural elements and therefore were probably compiled by Barnard as reference in his collecting and dealing in such pieces. There are also a significant number of photographs of jackhammers, many of which depict men operating the equipment underground or on rugged outdoor terrain. An autographed full-length portrait of the dancer Isadora Duncan is also included with the inscription, "To the Idealist from the Epicurean."
