Tags
Every image in the archive was catalogued twice over: once against a closed list of 57 subjects, which is what the collection can be filtered by, and once in open keywords describing whatever was actually in the picture. The first is a filing system. The second is 11,672 terms, most of them used only once — which is useless for filtering and is exactly what you want when you half-remember one specific thing.
Subjects
A closed list. Every image was assigned from these and nothing else, so the counts are comparable and none of them is a dead end.
