general library access policy. See the Administrative Information section of this finding aid for access restrictions specific to the records described
below. Please note, some of the records may be stored off site; advanced notice is required for access to these materials.
Records comprise photographic prints, contact sheets, slides, and negatives, dating 1982-1997 and undated. Images document
the tram cars that were similar to the ones eventually utilized at the Getty Center, as well as various plants that were proposed
for parts of the landscape. The rest of the series represents material that was pulled from throughout the collection and
appears to have been sent to a company called Metadesign. This material is out of context and has not been re-filed since
the original locations are unclear.
