Photograph album containing 62 photographs, with images of the interior and exterior of Trinity buildings, rowing eights, crowds on riverbanks, ice skaters on a frozen Cam, other Cambridge colleges, with some photographs of scenes in Wales and a copy of a Murillo painting laid in loose at the back. The photographs appear to all be by commercial photographers, with many blind stamped by Messrs. Stearns, and a few by Scott & Wilkinson Photographers, both of Cambridge. The initials M. O. H. are stamped on the cover, this is probably Mark Oliver Hunter, who arrived in Michaelmas 1892 and obtained his BA in 1895.

Ehrlich, Charles Worsley (1884-1957), son of Eugene Mortimer EhrlichLetter of donation tipped in to the front of the album. Most portraits have pencil captions, but the accompanying letter does indicate that some of the identifications are guesses. It is not clear whether Jesson owned the album initially, as he appears to have been from a slightly different generation at Trinity.
