From the Records of the Arkansas Valley Sugar Beet and Irrigated Land Company at Colorado State University, undated. The archive's own record says this photograph is believed to be in the public domain.

Shows: One page -- the first of 6 scanned -- of the file the archive catalogues as “Nitrate negatives”. Place, as the archive gives it: Arkansas River Watershed.

What this does not let you conclude: The catalogue's words are the archive's, and archives inherit their donors' errors: the date, the place and the names are what the record says, not what we checked. Only the first of 6 pages is shown here, so nothing in the rest of the file is evidence for anything on this page. The item's own place field is blank; it sits under this division because of the collection it came from, not because the record names a place. Nothing here says what the structure or the right does today. The date is the archive's catalogue date, not a date read off the item.
