This collection includes both written records and photographs of various building programs undertaken by the Board of Control
of the State of Florida from 1925-1967. The majority of the collection consists of photographs, including prints and negatives,
documenting the construction and completion of various projects. The building programs took place at the following educational
institutions: The Florida School for the Deaf and Blind, Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (Florida A and M),
Florida State University, and the University of Florida. Other subjects include the Museum of the American Circus, the homes
of University Presidents, the Ringling Museum, Tallahassee and Sarasota buildings, Experiment Stations, the Seagle Building
in Gainesville, as well as a group of unidentified negatives and prints. Also included are oversize photographs of Florida
A and M and the Florida State College for Women circa 1930. The majority of the written records can be found in the University
of Florida Project Files, which consist of correspondence, contracts, bids, plans, reports, drawings, and blueprints pertaining
to building projects on the UF campus and in Gainesville.
Files are arranged alphabetically within each series, except for a large portion of the negatives which are filed according
to negative numbers. A majority of the photographs and negatives are not dated, but most of the records found in the Project
Files are dated.
