Field notes

The archive combines several ways of locating the material: individual plates, Charleston places, a map, search, and a short chronology. Its stated editorial rule is to keep the black-and-white master scan as the record while placing any colorized interpretation beside it for comparison. The homepage also gives the collection a geographic and quantitative frame, listing 29 places and distinguishing 12 locations or structures that no longer stand.
