He was interested in the glass slide negatives of the prisoner photographs. These were shipped to Des Moines, where they were digitized by women detainees in the Mitchelville Correctional Center before being stored at the State Historical Society. Fullenkamp arranged for other materials described in this finding aid to be deposited at the University of Iowa Libraries.
