Group Photographs of the Annual Convention (1929-present)
Introduction
Since 1929, NWDA has hosted an annual convention. At each convention, a group photograph has been taken. Photographs from 1929-1991 are black and white, and those from 1992 to the present are color. The digital photographs are available below in two sizes:
"Small" Photograph Size
The "small" photographs are included for those with slower connections and those who wish to quickly "browse" the photographs. The "small" photographs were scanned at 150 dpi, and shrunk to 400 pixels wide. Since 2003, they have been scanned at 400 dpi. The download file size ranges from 18KB to 48KB.
