The collection consists of mounted and unmounted 35mm (199) and unmounted medium-format (71) color transparencies of the planet Jupiter and its moons made in 1962-1964 by amateur astronomer Philip R. Glaser. The images were made from an observation point in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin using an eight-inch, f7, newtonian reflector telescope. Some images were made with a 12-inch reflector telescope at the Milwaukee Astronomical Society Observatory, New Berlin, Wisconsin.
Philip Robert Glaser was born August 17, 1914 in Blissfield, Michigan. His interest in astronomy led him to act as long time Jupiter recorder for the Strolling Astronomer: the Journal of Association of Lunar and Planetary Observers. He was also a member of the Milwaukee Astronomical Society.
