One box of envelopes and photographic negative holders which previously contained prints and negatives of photographs taken and collected by Beryl de Zoete. The envelopes have been annotated in pencil with the accession numbers of the individual prints and negatives each envelope originally held. The envelopes are annotated with descriptions, possible by de Zoete herself, and include envelopes addressed to Otto Samson, who acquired the de Zoete photograph collection for the Horniman Museum after de Zoete's death.
