Index to Glass Negative Portraits in the Erik Overbey Collection There are more than 11,000 glass plate portraits in the Erik Overbey Collection. They date from the 1890s to c. 1915. W. A. Reed was the photographer for portraits taken between 1890 and 1905. Erik Overbey, who began as a photographer in 1905, subsequently purchased the Reed negatives, and both groups came into USA Archives' possession in 1978. Those interested in portraits of Mobilians taken after 1905 should see the Index to Overbey Nitrate (for the years 1905 to 1945) and the Index to Overbey Safety Portraits (for the years after World War II). Researchers should keep in mind that there is some overlap, so, if you are interested in a portrait made in, say, 1949, you should check both the Nitrate and Safety indexes. Or, if you are interested in a portrait taken in 1911, you should check both the Glass and Nitrate indexes. This index is arranged alphabetically by last name. It also lists the subject of the portrait, the size of the negative, the studio, and additional remarks, if any. Please see the key below for an explanation of the various abbreviations used in this index.To order a reprint of one of these portraits, please see our reproduction services page. It will detail the cost, sizes offered, and delivery time. Interested parties can also email the archives at archives@jaguar1.usouthal.edu. Ga-Gi Key: Subject; C=Child, F=Female, M=Male, G=Group
