Two of the photos are mounted on cardboard, the others have glue stains indicating that they were once mounted as well. All of the photos have writing on the back and several have small slips of paper with typewritten descriptions as well. The Dealer I acquired these from, told me that they came from the magazine "Scenic South," which was published in Louisville, Kentucky. One photo has a tear and some have crop marks, otherwise they are in good condition.
