| description |
This class contains photographic material mainly relating to the missionary work of the WMMS and MMS in Burma [Myanmar]. Material has been sorted into three files: one general photographic, a large set of stills accompanied by the text for a film and one non-photographic. The still images are from the film "Burma's Charm and Challenge" whilst the remaining images are of the missionares' evangelical, medical and educational work. There are also a few images relating to Adoniram Judson, the pioneering American Baptist missionary.
Where possible, placenames are identified by a contemporary standard form (generally taken from the 1933 Annual Report) and also by a current modern standard form (generally taken from the Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names) where this has been identified as different.

| scb_arrangement |
Material has either been sorted into manageable units, according to provenance, authorship and geographical location, or kept in existing units if these are appropriate.
