  • League of Nations Photo Archive

    "Although the League of Nations ceased to exist in 1946, its archives and historical collections survive as invaluable resources for historical research. In 1957, the Archives of the League of Nations was created. The Archives includes official records as well as portraits, paintings, caricatures, original artworks and unique objects d'art." Along with the Photo Archive, this collection includes "a digital copy of The Illustrated Album of the League of Nations, which includes a very concise overview of the League plus other photos and diagrams. The League of Nations: A Pictorial Survey also includes numerous photos. Another useful book is The Aims, Methods and Activity of the League of Nations, published by the Secretariat in 1935."
