The USDA Buildings Architectural Drawings Collection (circa 1920) consists of plans for U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) buildings, specifically the administration building, laboratory buildings, and a view of the National Mall area in Washington, D.C. There are eight architects' drawings mounted on pasteboard, which were made by the architectural firm Raukin, Kellogg, and Crane, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
