Original vintage photographic presentation collection distributed by the Division of Visual Education of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Foreign Mission Board in Richmond, Virginia. The collection includes 13 photo presentation boards.
Each presentation board measures 20 x 16 with the photo measuring 13-1/2 x 10-3/4. Each board has a tag on the back which describes the negative number, photographer, year taken, catagory of the photo, country of the photo, and a brief description.
The collection contains mounted color and black/white photographs documenting overseas missionary activities, including educational or medical-training work. These photographs were part of a traveling visual-education presentation loaned to churches for mission-study programs, missionary presentations and fundraising activities.
