Fortunately I only have one set of negatives where some of the images have been cut into individual pieces. I’m not certain why, but at least they were all in the same envelope. The cut apart negatives served to remind me not to jump to conclusions. There could have been a picture that someone didn’t want anyone else to see. There could have been a negative or two that someone wanted to give to someone else. Maybe the photos that didn’t turn out were removed. Maybe one or two strips of photos were cut apart for some reason but all the photos were retained. Note: I’m still digitizing negatives and am using this Kodak scanner for making digital scans of my negatives.

There were actually three registrations for the World War I draft in the United States. The cards were different. The cards for the first and second registrations had a corner that was to be cut off if the registrant was of African descent. The second card asked for the place of birth of the registrant’s father. The third did not ask for marital status. There are other differences between them as well.
