Chemawa Prints Project Day 1

I started the digitization process today for the Chemawa Prints Project. Scanning of CH 001 - CH 068 were completed. I created three new columns in the Google Sheets document 0001-0860 Chemawa Metadata: filename, Date, and Title. I will continue to add to and edit the Metadata alongside the photos (I completed filename, Date, and Title through CH 060). I also reordered the Metadata by catalogue number. My pace picked up once I figured out how to scan four photos at once, completing 48 scans after lunch (three hours).

I came across photos of industrial work, cleaning, dances, receptions, performances in traditional regalia, hoop dancers, Santa Clause, a clown, carvings on a cliff face, grounds keeping, and much more. One photo shows a man performing a magic trick using a young boy in a guillotine.
