This comprehensive list contains the exact printed captions at the bottom of of the photograph. These look as though they are copy photos of the original and a few of them show signs of staining or abrasion. One appears to have food particles stuck to it.

I look forward to starting a MARC catalog for these objects in the future. It is an interesting collection with a rich history to uncover and preserve.
