Archival Mysteries: Where Is It? is the first in a series of archival exhibitions featuring unidentified material from the collections of The Rooms Provincial Archives Division. It features photographs, digitally reproduced from glass plate negatives, which although are beautiful, remain a mystery in terms of their geographical location within Newfoundland and Labrador. Visitors to The Rooms are encouraged to submit suggestions on image locations to assist staff in the identification process for these historic images.
