Maryland Historical Society's (MdHS) Department of Imaging Services staff and interns are passionate about the photographic collections we see everyday.
Starting in circa 1850, the photographic collection contains well over one million items including daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, cartes-de-visite, albumen prints, salted paper prints, acetate negatives, and more. Photographs are part of MdHS's Special Collections Department, H. Furlong Baldwin Library.
