The Charles Weever Cushman photography collection documents the mans life and travels from the late 1930's to the late 60's. He traveled through the lower 48 states and to fourteen different countries. His entire photography collection was given to Indiana University, his alma mater, after his death in 1972 but the wealth of images wasn't discovered until 1999.

It's a remarkable story that only gets better once you start looking at the phenomenal images. It's a lot to take in so you may want to put it in context before diving in.
