Área de contenido y estructura

Alcance y contenido

The collection spans Snyder’s entire career and beyond, ranging from 1929 until 1982. Architectural plans and drawings make up the bulk of the collection. A series of color renderings offer valuable glimpses at a few projects. The collection also includes a number of city, area, and subdivision maps, most focused on South Florida and Miami. A large number of photos, transparencies and photo albums, showing various residential, commercial and public projects, is concentrated on Snyder’s work of the 1950s and 1960s, but includes some valuable earlier examples. Some of Snyder’s personal papers complete the collection, including examples of his many awards and certificates, his World War II records, a bound map of Cuba, and other miscellanea.

Sistema de arreglo

The Wahl Snyder drawings are organized into the following series: plans in drawers; maps, mounted photographs and color renderings in drawers; rolled drawings, and boxed papers and photographs.

The boxed papers and photographed are arranged in the following sub-series: 20 x 24 in. photographic prints; papers; transparencies; 8 x 10 in. photographic prints; 11 x 14 in. photographic prints; 20 x 15 in. photographic prints; and 20 x 24 in. photograph albums.

Within the first three series (i.e., items stored in drawers), drawings and other materials are arranged chronologically. Only the first rolled plan, a 1929 residence, is not a Snyder design.
