The Christine Drennon European lantern slide collection contains 106 glass lantern slides from the Universities of Texas and Michigan. The collection consists of images and maps of pre and post-war Europe, including the Netherlands, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Italy. A large portion of the slides depict images and plans of polders - areas reclaimed from lakes and seas by the construction of a series of dams and dikes. Several slides reference historically significant events such as the 1945 inundation of the Wieringermeer - a polder in the northern Netherlands - by Nazi troops. Images show the Wieringermeer before, during, and after inundation. Images also include plans for the reconstruction of dams and the subsequent annexation of German territory awarded as reparations at the end of World War II. The collection also includes a number of images of urban and rural destruction as a result of World War II bombing campaigns across Europe. The rest of the collection includes images of city development, rural farming practices, industrial factories, and some monuments and areas of historical interest. All of the images and slides originate from the 20th century.
