The University of Delaware photographed by Kevin Fleming.
Louisville: Harmony House, c1988.

This fascinating scrapbook contains snapshots of the town and campus taken between 1936 and 1942. Of particular interest are the many photos of Memorial Hall, then the University Library, taken during a major renovation. Adele Smith, the photographer, remains a mystery. She is not listed as a student or faculty member at the University of Delaware during that time, nor can she be found in Newark directories for the early nineteen-forties.
