Notes
Eastman-Kodak Brownie Camera No. 2C model A, with No. 130 film. One additional negative available. Additional information: From the Madison Courier: "Jefferson County's contribution of scrap aluminum, collected in a drive to aid the national defense program, was taken today to a district depot at Seymour. Madison's donations, together with collections from out thru the county, amounted to 1,600 pounds. The heap was removed from the post office lawn to a truck and was transported to Seymour by Lot Turner who makes trips every day or so to Seymour for Jackson County melons. More than ten tons of aluminum have been delivered to the Seymour depository from this district. There are fifteen counties in this concentration area. The metal collected locally was weighed on the Madison Coal Company scales, and Turner hauled it for the fuel it took to operate his truck." Sources: Madison Courier
