"Souvenir Folders"-- Part III: Souvenir Folders for which the cover is missing. At present, we have only two folders in this category, covering USS Arizonan (ID # 4542-A) and USS Orizaba (ID # 1536). These were both almost certainly of the "Statue of Liberty" type. The Orizaba set, donated in 1972, was the first item of this kind in the Naval History and Heritage Command's (then called the Naval Historical Center) photographic collections. It was not associated with the Souvenir Folder series until 2005, after we received others of the type.
