1887 and 1899. The bulk of the material is comprised of the photographic plates
taken by Leo Goldschmidt, a pioneer of the Tucson area. The plates have all been
printed. Images include family, friends, his businesses and business interests, and
personal residences in Arizona and Sonora, Mexico. This collection is part of the
Southwest Jewish Archives. The Bloom Southwest Jewish Archives were founded by David
A. and Leona G. Bloom, longstanding members of Tucson's business, religious, and
social service communities. The Archive serves to highlight Jewish contributions to
Tucson and surrounding southwest areas. This collection was previously SJA 002. The
materials were transferred to Special Collections in 1998. | |
