South Coast Orchid Society

Images were recovered for only 54 awards in 1963, and many of the black-and-white photos published in Orchid Digest were not very clear. It may be possible to recover additional color photos for the situation where there is a black-and-white photo in Orchid Digest, an AOS award lacking a photo in OrchidPro, and digitized images from the AOS award slide collection at the Huntington Botanical Center. In a separate project, it was discovered that many award slides never found their way into the AOS awards databases.
