Publicity Picture Packets, undated

 Series

Scope and Content

This series contains approximately 140 photographs and textual materials that were originally contained in a folder entitled, "Publicity Picture Packets"; the seven "packets" appear to have been generated for a publicity campaign. Each packet consists of a list of photographs and captions addressing a particular topic, with titles as follows: The Nature of the Inner City (Packet I); Forms of Inner City Ministry (Packet II); Inner City Preschoolers (Packet III); Inner City Children (Packet IV); Inner City Youth (Packet V); Inner City Adults (Packet VI); and Meditations (Packet VII).

The photographs in the series accompany these packets, though not all of the photographs referenced by the text were included with the collection. Photographs are numbered, and some of the photographs are used in more than one packet. Some of the photographs in the series are stamped, “Photography by Fred A. Roberts” and “Cinema Consultants International, 1700 E. Walnut, Pasadena, California.” Materials are undated.

The series is arranged as follows: Folder 2:1, entitled "Packet Pictures," contains captions and lists of pictures for Packets I through VII. Folders 2:2 through 2:8 contain captions for each of the packets. Folders 2:9 through 2:11 contain photographs accompanying the packets; these are arranged by the numbers provided on the photographs, and are broken down as follows: Folder 2:9 contains photographs numbered 1-1 through 9-8 and 10-10 through 19-9; Folder 2:10 contains photographs numbered 20-8 through 29-9 and 30-9 through 38-3; and Folder 2:11 contains photographs numbered 41-5 through 50-4. In addition, Folder 2:11 also contains unnumbered photographs or photographs that are apparently from another sequence.
