Description
The Paul Neal "Red" Adair and Kemmie Lou Wheeler folder contains 4 photographic prints of the couple that were added to the digital repository in December of 2023 from the Casper Star-Tribune People Photographs series. It is possible these photographs were taken around the time when Red Adair gave a talk at the Casper Oil Show, which was held in the Casper Events Center in 1982. These photographs are part of a larger record group that consists of photographs and negatives created and used by the Casper Star-Tribune from 1967 until the middle of 1995 according to the February 2000 newspaper article on this gift to Casper College. In the words of Special Collections Curator at the time, Kevin Anderson, the photographs in this collection serve to document "events in our own lives, events in our own history." There were 19,000 envelopes that were gifted to the repository, which totaled between 330,000 and 460,000 images. Images in this collection may support the use of other collections in the repository or vice versa.
