This box contains materials from his research, including photographic prints, correspondence, facsimile photos, and illustrations. Subjects include the publication of The Great Kanawha Navigation by the University of Pittsburgh Press, the Marmet, London, and Winfield Locks and Dams and other rolling dams, workers, the Philippi Bridge and the Wheeling Suspension Bridge.
