ABSTRACT Photographic images of Jesuit and Dominican missions by Marquis McDonald, traveller and writer, during a overland trip down the Baja California peninsula. Many of the images illustrate McDonald's book BAJA: LAND OF LOST MISSIONS (1968). BIOGRAPHY Marquis McDonald often took the opportunity provided by overseas employment in places like Alaska, Afghanistan, Okinawa, and Saudia Arabia to travel and explore interesting places. After working in Saudia Arabia for several years following World War II, McDonald settled in Visalia, California, and took the time to pursue his interest in Baja California. Together with Glenn Oster, an acquaintance from Saudia Arabia, McDonald planned and executed an overland trip down the length of the Baja California peninsula from the autumn of 1949 through the late spring of As the adventurers journeyed from the border to Cabo San Lucas down dirt roads in a World War II surplus jeep, they sought out mission ruins of the Jesuit and Dominican religious orders. Eighteen years later, McDonald published a book about that trip entitled Baja: Land of Lost Missions (1968), which provides descriptions of the people and places they encountered. SCOPE AND CONTENT The Marquis McDonald Papers contain only photographic materials created during the trip through Baja California, many of which were published in BAJA: LAND OF LOST MISSIONS (1968). They are principally of mission buildings in various formats of 2 1/4 black and white print, 2 1/4 ektachrome color slide, and 35mm kodachrome color slide. Most black and white negatives have corresponding prints. MSS

3 The materials are organized by format. Within each format, items are arranged geographically as one would travel from north to south in the order presented in his book. A list for each format provides McDonald's descriptive title with the corresponding Archives Negative Number. Additionally, there is an alphabetical list of titles. All slides and negatives have been filed in the Archives Negative File. Access to Photographic Materials Black and white prints made from individual 2 1/4 black and white negatives are housed in the collection folder. In cases where a positive image does not exist for a listed negative, request assistance from the reference staff and the negative will be made available in a protective enclosure for inspection. All color slides located in the Archives Negative File must be requested by the corresponding negative number, e.g. ASC2/M189/1. 2 1/4 BLACK AND WHITE NEGATIVES * -Negative without black and white print AN3/M189/1(B-1) "Nearing Catavina Ranch" AN3/M189/2(B-2) "Approaching Lake Chapala" AN3/M189/3(B-3) "Camping near Catavina Ranch" *AN3/M189/4(B-4) "Trail to Santa Maria de Los Angeles" AN3/M189/5(B-5) "Ruins Mission Santa Maria de Los Angeles" AN3/M189/6(B-6) "Ruins Mission Santa Maria de Los Angeles" AN3/M189/7(B-7) "Ruins Mission Santa Maria de Los Angeles" AN3/M189/8(B-8) "On the trail to Dolores del Norte" AN3/M189/9(B-9) "Ruins Mission Dolores del Norte" AN3/M189/10(B-10) "Mission San Borja" *AN3/M189/11(B-11) "Mission San Borja" AN3/M189/12(B-12) "Mission Santa Gertrudis" AN3/M189/13(B-13) "Campanile, M.
