Edward Bronson photograph collection
Collection Organization
The Edward Bronson Collection consists of 798 contact prints (5.5 x 14 in.), made from original 10 x 31 cm. negatives. As the work of an amateur photographer active between 1906 and 1949, the collection provides a comprehensive view of the life of Defiance, Ohio through the first half of the twentieth century. The collection has numerous shots of civic activities (such as parades, festivals, and other ceremonies); views of the physical community (street scenes, buildings, groundbreakings, cornerstone laying, construction sites, bridges, and dams); noteworthy events related to floods, fires, political campaigns, or social activities; and scenes of personal interest to the photographer, particularly photographs relating to flowers and gardening.
Some of the more interesting items in the collection include photographs of crowds listening to Theodore Roosevelt and William Taft at the Defiance County Courthouse, May 16 and May 18, 1912; activities and entertainers related to Elks Jubilee Week in Defiance in 1914; scenes from the Fourth Liberty Loan, Victory Liberty Loan, and Red Cross parades during World War I, as well as other community patriotic activities during 1918-1919.
Due the wide angle of view in the negatives created by Bronson's camera, many of the photographs in the collection have a slight degree of distortion or bending in the scene. However, the sharpness and clarity of the pictures is generally quite good, with details that can be enlarged without too much loss of resolution. Most of the photographs have identification, a date, and Bronson's name written on the original negative.
