A legacy worth thousands of words
Dallas to preserve black photographer's historic collection
10:32 PM CDT on Friday, August 13, 2004
By EMILY RAMSHAW / The Dallas Morning News

There's the one of Dallas' first black police officers. One of a visit by Ike and Tina Turner. And a couple
showing Martin Luther King Jr. in the early days of desegregation.
But Mr. Butts is preparing to say goodbye to those images.
