Re: Historical Photography Search Trouble
1 person found this helpfulGo to the Left side for search and select Advanced Search. Then enter some related topics, add a Record Group.
Except Record Group 181, which cannot be searched. An Open search of RG 181 results in an Error Message.
It pertains to Navy Records. You can also enter just a Record Group, such as 120 for WW1, Select Photographs and Other Graphic Materials. You can also select File Format , PDF , JPEG..for digital type.
Use Advanced Search and the RG, date and specific file formats

It provides an overview of some of our holdings and offers some information about common terms used to describe our records. You can also email the reference staff in the Still Pictures Branch with specific questions. Their email address is stillpix@nara.gov.
