This album contains 116 black and white photographs compiled in an album. Some of the photographs are taken by the original owner of the album, an un-named woman, and others are part of a package of printed photos, purchased on location as a tourist souvenir. All of the photos are taken in either Egypt or Israel and include monuments, ancient sites, churches and their interiors, local life, public buildings and streets, as well as, a few portraits and group photographs. The titles were taken from inscriptions on the album pages, where available, and were otherwise generated by the cataloguer on the basis of the content of the photograph.
