Abstract | John Moran Frohock attended the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, N.C., from 1925 to 1929. He graduated in 1929. The collection consists of 242 black-and-white photographic prints, many of which were presumably made and/or collected by John Moran Frohock while he attended the University of North Carolina. A few images pre-date Frohock's tenure at UNC, and others appear to have been collected by an unidentified girlfriend of Frohock's. Many of the photographs were made in Chapel Hill and include views of the University of North Carolina campus. The images taken on campus include University buildings/grounds, UNC students (Frohock's classmates and friends), UNC sports (boxing and football), and views of Franklin Street in downtown Chapel Hill. Also included are photographs from Greensboro, Trenton, and other areas of North Carolina (including a fishing trip in the coastal region); Washington, D.C.; and the 1926 Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition in Philadelphia, Pa. |

Many of the photographs are accompanied by descriptive captions, which are provided below in quotation marks. References to "Jack" are assumed to refer to John M. Frohock. Photograph album page numbering below excludes empty pages in the album (i.e., page 30 is the 30th page in the album with images on it).
Back to Top103 black-and-white prints in a 34-page, 7x12-inch, leather-bound album.
Pages appear to be from album kept by someone other than Frohock, but who knew some of the same people and went on the same trips (likely his girlfriend). This unknown woman was apparently a teacher at Charles B. Aycock School in Kannapolis, N.C. The album pages include many of the same images as the album in Series 1.
