content: The photographs consist of 35mm slides and some prints and negatives. A large portion of the photos are of Southeast Asia (Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam) in addition to images of Hong Kong, Africa, Haiti, and New Guinea. Most of the photographs were taken by Smalley in his travels as a missionary worker; the later photos of Thailand were taken by Smalley when he was in the country as a Fulbright fellow. Also in this series are photos for Mother of Writing: The Origin and Development of a Hmong Messianic Script, photos of pages from a Sayaboury script book, and photos of Hmong refugees living in Minnesota.
