Iowa City Town and Campus Scenes Digital Collection

Automobile, Iowa City, Iowa, 1920s  

This collection features work by two photographers who, combined, documented the University of Iowa and the surrounding community for over a century. The work of Samuel Calvin (1840-1911), a professor in natural sciences, and Frederick Wallace Kent (1894-1984), a lecturer in photography, form an invaluable pictorial piece of Iowa City history. The depictions include students, professors, businesses, houses, parks, and bridges.
