scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents note
content: This series consists primarily of photographs of artwork produced by FAP artists, in addition to scattered photographs of artists and other individuals engaged in FAP work, or attending FAP events. An attempt has been made to date photographs using dates provided on the back of the photos where these exist, although it should be noted that those dates may not accurately indicate the date on which copy prints were produced. In the case of undated material a date of "circa 1935-circa 1942" is assigned to the folder, since it can reasonably be assumed that most photographs were taken within that time period. A few items pre-date or post-date the existence of the FAP.
