Description:
A: Envelope to hold negatives. Labeled: "3/6/54 C. Hagerty".
B: Negative in vertical view of a boy toddler in overalls, collared shirt, and open cardigan. He sits upon a legged stool with a half—rounded seat. The stool and boy are situated to the right of the image, near some steps. He is shown in full frontal view, looking to his right.
C: Negative in vertical view of the same boy, more centered in the image, still seated upon the stool. He is again shown in full view, still looking slightly to his right.
D: Negative in vertical view of the same boy seated on the stool, with an adult's arm reaching from the left out of frame to arrange the boy's right hand.
E: Negative in vertical view of the boy, again the stool is arranged toward the right near the steps. The boy is looking toward his left this time, legs splayed widely over the edge of the stool.
F: Negative in vertical view of the boy, his legs dangling straight in front of him this time. He is looking straight ahead into the direction of the camera, and is holding something rounded in his clasped hands. The edge and leg of a table can be seen at the right of the image.
G: Negative in vertical view of the same boy, legs again splayed over the edge of the stool. He still holds something in his hands near his lap, but it is unclear what the object is. He looks toward the camera. The slightest edge of a table at his left can be seen in the image.
H: Negative in vertical view showing the boy in full front side view, some kind of toy in his hands, clasped near his chest. He still sits on the stool, attempting to fold his right leg under himself. He gazes slightly to his right.
I: Negative in vertical view of the boy on the stool, with the angle again skewing toward the right and showing the steps at the boy's left. The boy still clasps and indiscernable object to his chest, with his legs again splayed over the corner of the stool.
J: Negative in vertical view showing the same boy in a frontal angle still seated on the stool. His hands are at his sides and are now empty. He looks to his right.
K: Negative in vertical view of an infant, gender unknown but clothed in a dress with puffed sleeves. The infant sits on a padded tabletop, body facing left, but the face toward the camera.
L: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, still sitting on the tabletop, body arranged toward the right this time, facing right as well. The infant holds something in its hands and is bringing it toward its mouth.
M: Negative in vertical view of the infant, fully arranged toward its right on the tabletop, but facing straight toward the camera.
N: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, body arranged toward the front, facing the camera, but with its head turned slightly toward the right, smiling.
O: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, body arranged toward the right, but head facing straight toward the camera, smiling.
P: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, body arranged slightly to the right, head facing the same way. Hands are lying closed in the lap.
Q: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, body arranged fully toward the right, but the head facing backward and smiling. The hands are outstretched as if reaching for the feet splayed in front of the infant.
R: Negative in vertical view of the same infant, body arranged slightly toward the right, with the head facing toward the left. Hands are again outstretched, but not as far.
