Two sets of colour photographs:

1. Eight colour photographs (each 5" x 31/2") arranged on sheets as a small 'album' with captions (A-H), showing sites where particular Salk Institute buildings will be constructed. There is a covering sheet headed 'Pictorial Supplement' which gives a plan to which the photographs are keyed.

2. Three colour photographs (each 5" x 31/2") with captions showing laboratory construction.

A memorandum (9 August, 1963) is included which refers to "interior and exterior shots of the Temporary Laboratories as of the week of 22 July 1963" (numbered 1-6), although it does not appear to relate to either set of photographs.
