The eighty slides in the “Paula Lerner Photographs, 1995” collection are a representative selection of a series of approximately 400 images of Maine’s Upper St. John Valley shot during the summer and early fall of 1995 by Paula Lerner. Ms. Lerner, a professional free-lance photographer, took these photographs for Mark Sullivan’s Yankee Magazine features “This New England,” which appeared in the June 1996 issue. The original images belong to the photographer. Acadian Archives staff contacted Ms. Lerner and requested that she select a representative sampling of the slides for purchase by the Archives.
