The Evelyn Collection is a collection of lantern slides and photographs which was compiled by Dr William Arthur Evelyn in York, between 1891 and his death on 6 January 1935.[1][2] It consists of many views of York: its streets, buildings and events. The collection was donated to the Yorkshire Architectural and York Archaeological Society (YAYAS), of which Evelyn was a leading member, by him in December 1934[3] The collection is now held by YAYAS. See the society's website for access details. Some of Evelyn's photographs are featured in York - A Rare Insight. Pictures from the Evelyn Collection.[4]

Dr William Arthur Evelyn also amassed a vast collection of around 1,200 images of York, North Yorkshire in the form of prints, drawings, paintings, plans, and original engraved copper plates.[5][6] The entire collection was offered to York Corporation in 1930 and a subscription fund was started to raise the purchase price of £3,000.[7] The collection was sold to York Corporation and was housed in York Art Gallery from July 1931.[8]
