DescriptionIn the photo album “The Negro and Reynolda,” several residents of Five Row described the community and its people from 1915 until 1940. It was presented to Mary Reynolds Babcock and her husband Charlie Babcock in 1940, a few years after Mary purchased other family members' shares in the estate. "The Negro and Reynolda" reminds her of the contributions and commitment of Reynolda's African American employees and residents.
ProvenanceThe Babcock Family Papers were transferred from Wake Forest University in 1993 after Reynolda House Museum of American Art started its Archives.
