Audiovisual, 1910 - 1977

 Series
Identifier: MANUSCRIPT HCPC00003

Scope and Contents

Designated by format rather than topic, this series contains photographic materials and audiotape, as well as political cartoons and maps.

The Photographs subseries is arranged chronologically by “loose” photos and those removed from albums (bulk 1960-1976), as well as by format: “oversized” (various dates) and “slides” (only one box). The photographs were culled from other parts of the collection prior to formal processing, so little of the original order has been preserved. Of biographical interest are the early photos of Fong’s birth family, his children, law school graduation and pre-Congressional business affairs (see also Personal-Biography and Personal-Scrapbook and Photos).

The Political Cartoons subseries comprises ten original newspaper cartoons given to Senator Fong from various artists highlighting numerous political issues and campaigns. The Political Maps subseries contains several large diagrams of State of Hawaii U.S. Congressional and local legislative districts dated 1960, 1961, 1963, and 1969 (see also Memorabilia-Campaign-Placards).
