Henry  S. Graves, then Dean of the Yale School of Forestry. He intended to have them mounted in an  album to be placed in the new library building at Yale. These 6 Oregon Agricultural College photos were submitted by  Dean George W. Peavy on August 20, 1923. Dean Peavy wrote the following in his  correspondence to Graves: &#8220;Possibly the more staid and dignified forestry  students at Yale would be interested in more strictly technical matters.  However, these prints seem to be the ones most readily available at the  time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For reference assistance, please contact the Forest History Society Photographic Archivist, <a href=\"mailto:elizabeth.hull@duke.edu\">Elizabeth  Hull<\/a>.
