TITLE: Official photographs index
DATES: 1965-1998.
ARRANGEMENT: Sequential by job number with secondary reference alphabetical by subject.
DESCRIPTION: The Community Relations Office of the Department of Transportation created an index to the offices official photographs. The office assigned a job number to each set of photographs taken or adopted by the office as official photographs. The job number provides access to all photographic material in the official photographs collection. Job numbers include a three part number series. The first number identifies the year in which a photo was taken or adopted as an official photograph. Numbers 5,6,7,8, and 9 represent photographs taken in 1965-1969. Thereafter, numbers identifying year are more complete, such as 1970, 71, 72, 73, and so forth. The second number in the series identifies the job number, and the third number identifies a specific photograph within that job number. For each job number the index minimally identifies the subject of the photos and the date or dates on which they were taken. Some entries also identify the photographer or provide other notes pertaining to the pictures. This series also includes a secondary index which identifies photographs by subject. For each subject the secondary index provides a date and job number. The index also includes a map of district boundaries for Utah Highway Districts, and a list of 54 prominent photographs.
