Processing InformationAfter the Beinecke acquired the Solomon Sir Jones film, they received significant conservationtreatment and preservation reformatting at Cineric, Inc. A condition assessment revealed that all filmrolls are missing head and tail leader. There are substantial surface stains and deep scratches on bothemulsion and base side of the film. All splices were examined for the pitch and/or were redone. Somesplices were done with tape wrapped over the perforation holes; repair caused minimal frame loss. Allother splices lost about 2 frames when redone. There are many partially ripped frames. The first 10 feetof each roll has more handling damage. Some sections where the perforation is pulled on both sidescannot be used at all. The film is brittle and the perforation holes are very fragile. The emulsion peels oeasily. Overall roll 2, 6, 11 and 21-27 are in better condition while roll 1, 3, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16 are in very badshape, the rest falling somewhere in between.

The preservation reformatting work completed includes new 16mm negatives made with a wet gateoptical printer (this eliminated some scratches); new prints were made from new negatives on a contactprinter. All rolls were first hand cleaned due to the fine metal dust that came from the deterioratedaluminum reels, and the necessary repairs of the above listed damages were completed. Heavilydamaged sections were removed and are stored as a separate reel.

The Media Preserve telecined all new 16mm negatives for the creation of digital files for preservationand access. These digital files are available for access.

The Collection Contents contains edited slate transcriptions and content description supplied by thearchivist. Jones was creative in his slate construction since he often ran out of letters and had to useothers or omit them all together. In these cases, the transcription was edited to reflect the intendedwords. Spelling errors were researched and corrected. When omitted but known, state abbreviationsare supplied for uniformity. The supplied time codes correspond to the videos available.

Condition assessment information for each film is listed in the finding aid at the film level.

Existence and Location of CopiesEach film has a corresponding 16mm negative, 16mm fine grain master print, and various digital fileformats.

Solomon Sir Jones (1869-1936)Solomon Sir Jones, Baptist minister, businessman, and amateur filmmaker. Jones was born in Tennessee toparents who had once been enslaved. He grew up in the South before moving to Oklahoma in 1889. Jonesbecame an influential Baptist minister, building and pastoring fifteen churches. He was head of the BoydFaction of Negro Baptists in America and was a successful businessman.

Scope and ContentsThe Solomon Sir Jones films consist of 29 silent black and white films documenting African-Americancommunities in Oklahoma from 1924 to 1928. The films measure 12,800 feet (355 min). All films are B-windpositive prints, except one roll that contains approximately 150 feet of orange base B-wind positive.

Jones filmed Oklahoma residents in their homes; during their social, school and church activities; in thebusinesses they owned; and performing various jobs. The films document several Oklahoma communities,including Muskogee, Okmulgee, Tulsa, Wewoka, Bristow and Taft. The films also document Jones'strips to Indiana, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri, Illinois, New York City, South Carolina,Colorado, and overseas to France, England, Palestine, Switzerland, Italy, Northern Africa, and Germany.Slates between scenes identify locations, dates, and subjects.

Jones frequently filmed at various locations by positioning himself outside a building while people exitedthe building in a line. This perspective provides footage of people as they walk by the camera, usuallylooking directly at it. Footage of churches includes congregants exiting the service and socializing outside;footage of schools often includes students playing outside or doing exercises; and footage of people attheir home includes them outside on their porches or in their yards. Aside from church and scheduledschool activities, people presumably exited at Jones's request for the purpose of being filmed by him.
