500,000 of the 650,000 photographs in the Print Department are from the Boston
Herald-Traveler Photo Morgue, the one-time working photo archive of a major Boston
newspaper. The collection covers the years from ca.1906 to 1972 when the newspaper shut
down and was absorbed into the present day Boston Herald. The holdings include photographs
by staff photographers, photo services and contributing photographers. The Morgue is
organized into both biographical and subject files on local, national and international
subjects.
