These photograph albums were compiled by Barbara Ker-Seymer from 1928 to 1944. The albums contain photographs of Ker-Seymer, various locations in England and France, and her friends - including many notable figures of the period. The majority of the photographs were taken by Ker-Seymer. The loose photographs depict many of Ker-Seymer's professioal subjects, as well as personal photographs of herself and her family.

Details of the remainder of the collection can be found on the Archive catalogue.
