One photograph is a scanned image of Colin Powell and Rene Henry at Henry's 2012 Alumni Medallion ceremony; the other photograph is Rene Henry and Marshall Ries at the Sigma Nu Fraternity National Convention, Mackinanc Island, Michigan, 1953. Henry was recording secretary and Ries treasurer of the Epsilon Iota chapter of Sigma Nu at William & Mary. Materials related to "The Iron Indians" project include correspondence, Documentation of Registration with the Writers Guild, a screenplay, and press releases. A copy of the book "The Iron Indians" was not retained since there are already copies in the library's general collection as well as in Special Collections.
