Photographer Alex Coupar photographed Scotland and the Scots for over fifty years, recording the minutiae of ordinary lives as well as civic and national events.
Dundee University Archive Services are fortunate to have Alex’s collection of work diaries, negatives and prints, dating back to the 1950s until his retirement in 2000.
The Alex Coupar collection, MS 258, is in the process of being arranged and listed and will hopefully be available for people to use soon.
More information about the Archive and all the collections is available at www.dundee.ac.uk/archives.
