STILLWATER STATE PRISON:

Both a side and front view of each inmate are included on each plate. Some negatives are missing. Some of the photos appear to have been taken by John Runk (Stillwater, Minnesota).

Each negative is numbered. Some are the inmates' case file numbers, photographed on a "menu-board" under the inmate's chin. Others are written onto the glass plate in white ink; these are assumed to be the inmates' case file numbers.
