The photographs were produced for Thomas Fuller, the original architect of the New State Capitol, by photographer Eugene M. Haines and published in a limited edition. Each photograph is identified by the date it was taken and the location by street, structure or both. The first four photographs are marked A through D and the remainder numbered 1 through 63. Photographs number 1, 35, 55-57, and 59-62 are missing. The photographs are reproduced originals that have been mounted on either 15" x 10" or 7" x 5 1/5" cardboard sheets.
