content: According to the manuscript materials, these photographs were collected by Steve Kaslov from American Rom families in his social and kinship network 'from the walls of flats or tents.' Mostly studio portraits, they include photographs possibly taken in Europe before the subjects emigrated, one apparently taken in Mexico about 1917, and others contemporary with de Wendler- Funarols acquaintaince with the Gypsies. The collection consists mainly of negatives that de Wendler-Funaro made from the originals.
