San Diego Natural History Museum from 1922 to 1962. This collection of
photographs was taken during that period of time.
Scope and Content Note
Chiefly black and white photographs taken from 1922-1962 on field trips
throughout Arizona, California, and Baja California. Other states are
represented in smaller numbers, as are Argentina, Canada, and Costa Rica. The
main subjects are birds and mammals in their natural environments, but many
photographs also document the field expedition, local inhabitants, notably the
Seri Indians, and the vegetation. Typescripts of articles Huey wrote on various
topics are also present, as is a monograph he wrote for the Transactions of the
San Diego Society of Natural History, titled
The Mammals of Baja California, Mexico.
Photographs are arranged by geographic location.
