A unique combination of photographic and K-coronameter data were used to study the structure and evolution of two known coronal streamers. In addition, two other K-coronameter enhancements were studied as representing ideal second examples of the known streamers. As a general rule the observations indicate that these features were direct coronal manifestations of photospheric bipolar magnetic regions (BMR) and were of two basic types:active region, by which is meant a coronal streamer which develops radially over a low-latitude active region; andhelmet which denotes a streamer whose structure and development appear to be a consequence of a long-lived complex of activity, composed of both trailing magnetic fields and a parent center of disk activity.
