The Clarksville-Montgomery County History Slides consist of photos of the historic buildings and locations within Montgomery County. The slide show was created around 1978-1981 and features 145 photographs of notable buildings, churches, homes, and schools within Montgomery County and nine pages of notes with a brief description of each photo. The provenance of the slide show is unknown, but credit is given to professors and students of Austin Peay State University and several city organizations. The focus of the slide show is the general history of Clarksville-Montgomery County, with a concentration on architecture, through a visual medium. The collection features photographs of notable locations around Montgomery County that span from 1792 to 1978, with many photographs of the same buildings over time, showing how the landscape and industry of the area has changed. With photos of historic buildings that were destroyed in many of the slides, this collection could be great resource for someone researching local history or architecture.
