Marvin Fisher, professor emeritus and former chair of the Department of English at at ASU, donated a historic collection of photographs to Hayden Library.
Comprised of more than 130 historic photographs from Poland, the collection, which Fisher calls "an assortment, really," belonged to his mother, Helena Goldman. The photographs were taken in Europe before 1930, and most come from the towns of Gostynin, Gombin or Kutno. Many are in the form of postcards that were given to his mother with inscriptions urging her to remember the devotion of friends and relatives in nearby towns.
