• KATE CORY COLLECTION
  This is probably the most important set of photos in the Museum. There are 400 + original prints; the negatives are at the Museum of Northern Arizona.
  The museum honors the Hopi tribe's requests to restrict access to Cory's portraits of Hopi ceremonial activities; none can be reproduced. The everyday life pictures can be reproduced with the permission of the Smoki Museum.
  
  Most photos of people were taken in a village setting, generally outside houses (doorways) or in public areas. A few are beyond the village. Some show daily life; some are posed portraits.
