The papers consist of photographs, correspondence, research notes, and clippings assembled by art historian Martin Soria and documenting his studies of art and architecture in Europe, particularly Spain.

Collection consists of photographs of Mexican Colonial art and architecture, with architecture the predominant subject. Most of the material are likely dated from the 1920s and 1930s and were purchased by George Kubler for Yale University from the Instituto Nacional de Antropologia y Historia, Mexico City. Some materials were purchased from the photographer, Joseph A. Baird, Jr. Deposited in the Visual Resources Department in 1983.

Miniature books, as defined by the Library of Congress, are books under four inches in all directions. The books in this collection are also individually cataloged in Orbis, the Yale University Library online catalog.

Collection consists of lantern slides of architecture, mostly Gothic and mostly European. They are fully identified on the labels. Most of the views seem to be stock photography from sources such as Alinari.

Collection consists of combined black and white glass lantern and black and white and color 35-mm slides. Topics include alchemy, anatomy, art movements and theory, cartoons and comics, children's drawings and book illustration, color, computer art, cosmology, fireworks, geometry and perspective, proportion and scale, graffiti, iconography, nature, portraits, principles of design, science, and modes of transportation. Also includes a section called Gumbo Mud, consisting of hitherto unidentified lantern slides.

Collection consists of black & white or sepia photographs, 10 x 14 in. or smaller, of Classical sculpture, architecture, and sites. These photographs were removed from the collection because of questionable worth or fragility. Most of the photographs are mounted, but folders of unmounted photographs are also included. Most of the photographs have been identified, and are marked on the backs. This identification was done recently. Some information is on Post-It notes attached to the photograph. The views of archaeological sites usually contain groups of archaeologists, visitors or local guides, and would date the photos to the end of the 19th century. Some of the photographs, particularly those of sculpture, are standard views from photo archives, but many are original photos and provide views of sites that are no longer available.

Miscellaneous collection of maps, diagrams, elevations, plans and photographs of architecture and archaeological sites, including aerial photographs, mostly well known monuments and places, used for teaching.

Miscellaneous collection of oversized photographs of European, American, Asian and Pre-Columbian painting, used for teaching primarily for an undergraduate art history survey course.
