Death Plaque for an unknown woman made by Success Portrait Co. of Chattanooga, Tennessee. In the center of the front is a photo of a young woman, presumably the one the plaque is meant for, in a blue and white collared dress. Behind her are various Christian-themed depictions, including Jesus Christ at the pearly gates, as well as biblical quotes. Below the photo is a slip of paper with the words "Born, Died, Age" written on it, along with lines meant to be filled in with the corresponding information. Though faded, examination has revealed the faded writing to be "Born: June 11, 1903", "Died: January 19, 1933", and "Age: 29 Years". any attempt to decipher the name reveals letters too faded to read.

Large Black and White Paper Photo by an unknown photographer. On the front is a photo of 12 football players in early 20th-century football uniforms, posed in line-up and looking at the camera. In the background is a parking lot filled with cars, and a man walking behind the team. On the bottom is written "1953, 135 LB. Team (team is underlined for some reason), 7-0-1". On the back of the photo are various signatures, presumably of the football players in the photo. Their names are assumed to be "Sandy McCurdy, Derge McKhann, Grev Munger, Steve Powell, Rondy Wright, Bruce S. Marks, Roy Munder, John Kell, Dave [Rolf?], Dana Lerich, and Walton Johnston". Research on these names to confirm them led to the belief that this is a photo of the Episcopal Academy football team from Merion, PA. , 1953

Large Mounted Photo taken from the rooftop of the Church of Saint Gervais in Paris, France by an unknown photographer. Geographical research to confirm the sticker on this photo's plastic casing reveals the location where this photo was taken to be Paris, France. The photo includes various famous landmarks, specifically the river Seine, Pont Neuf, and the Sainte-Chapelle, located to the left with a visible dome. On the right side of the photo, in the far distance, is the Arc De Triomphe, or Arc of Triumph. This photo is wrapped in plastic. On the plastic is a sticker with the words "48, $-10.00, Late 1800's Panoramic view of Paris, 1479." At the bottom of the photo is believed to be written "189 Paris, Panorama des Neun Ponf, [vue wake du S Co teis?] X Phot.", The date of this photo is inferred to be a roughly 20-year gap between 1860 and 1880 due to the presence of the Arc de Triomphe's statue on top, but no Eiffel Tower is visible in the photo.
