Container Title
2014/105
Part 3 (2014/105, Audio 1704A/22): Additions, 1968-1982
Physical Description: 3.0 cubic feet of slides and photographs (3 records center cartons), 0.2 cubic feet (1 archives box), and 1 tape recording 
Scope and Content Note: Slides, 1968-1982, documenting Old World Wisconsin and the site's development. The bulk of the collection is images of the buildings currently at Old World Wisconsin, often documenting the building in its original location and its new location at Old World. There are also images of buildings which were evaluated for the site and not selected, events at the site, interpreters and staff, and of a Wisconsin National Guard film project filmed at the site. The photographic files of Gary A. Payne document his research on buildings (none of which are at Old World Wisconsin) and ethnic groups. There are a small number of slides from Marty Perkins. The research and acquisition file of Jack Winn includes copies of images of specific buildings evaluated for Old World Wisconsin and a research trip to Rock County. Winn's files also include three reports and some publicity items relating to the opening of the site.
