This collection consists of a photograph album compiled by Charlotte D. Gale of Roanoke, Virginia, at the end of the 19th century. The album contains approximately 40 photos and includes scenes from Crockett Springs, Roanoke, Salem, and Norfolk, Virginia, most featuring identified family and friends. Among the other scenes are photos of the Norfolk & Western office building, Crystal Springs, and a Forepaugh and Sells Brothers Circus parade. The album also contains copies of a few letters, written by Gale apparently as practice; a list of personal expenses for the first three months of 1900; and a recipe for photographic developer solution.
