Content DescriptionReturn to Top
These photographs were taken by A.J. (Jeff) Simmonds, former Curator of Special collections and Archives, and a student assistant, Wayne G. Jaggi, in April of 1971. The photographer's aim was to document historic structures in Cache Valley. Simmonds provided detailed information about each structure, including the year built, materials, specific details such as gables, and sometimes even the cost of construction. For a number of years the collection was missing. In 1996 it was discovered to be at the offices of the Herald Journal in Logan. Unfortunately, the collection was subjected to significant water damage during this time. The prints were made from 120mm negatives which are currently missing.
