The series consists of glass slides and negatives created by the Provincial Board of Health from 1922 to 1932 and ca. 1946. The photographs were created to document the infectious diseases of leprosy and smallpox, 1922 to 1932, and the slides in particular were used to provide information to health care professionals about infectious diseases. Another set of slides, made ca. 1946, were created to educate people about the steps Civil Defence units would take to provide medical service in the event of an atomic bomb.
