Most of the information in the table below was transcribed from a card catalogue maintained in the Russell archives reading room. Further enhancement of some of these descriptions is expected. Meanwhile, in some cases, the description was enhanced with information recorded in Russell: the Journal of Bertrand Russell Studies (indicated by RJ references in the table, i.e. volume and issue number).

Arranged alphabetically by ‘Primary subject of photo’. Where the primary subject repeats—e.g. ‘Russell, Bertrand’—further arrangement is by ‘Date’. Several photographs include multiple individuals; in these cases, only one individual is listed under ‘Primary subject’, while the others are listed in ‘Description’.

B&w photograph, 11 x 7.8 cm
Two young men with the Museum in background. One of them is holding a camera and stick. They are possibly students of Russell’s who taught at the University of Chicago in 1938-39.

Note: It is not known how or when this photograph was placed into Box 2.22 of the Edith Russell fonds. It should have been included as part of Archives I. Perhaps it remained at the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation and was shipped with Edith’s papers. When S. Turcon described those papers she may not have recognized what this photograph was. Or it may have been placed in the box at some unknown time after she described the photographs, like the Plaisance Hotel photograph was.

Seven b&w snapshots, each 8.3 x 6 cm. One is inscribed on the back in Patricia Russell’s hand “some views in the grounds”. The archivist believes these are of the Telegraph House grounds in the 1930s.

Note: These photos were found in Box 2.22 in 2018. It is not known how or when these photographs were placed into the Edith Russell fonds. They should have been included as part of Archives I. Perhaps they remained at the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation and were shipped with Edith’s papers. When S. Turcon described those papers she may not have recognized what these photographs were. Or they may have been placed in the box at some unknown time after she described the photographs, like the Plaisance Hotel photograph was.
