Scope and Content
From the Collection:
This collection of 138 negatives and 29 black and white photographic prints, arrived in the Center for Southwest Research in a box labeled "Summer 1965, New Mexico Boys School, Santa Fe." Depicted are residents and staff, including a priest in his vestments. Many of the photographs are indoor and outdoor scenes at the Boys' Ranch, but specific locations are often unidentified. Some settings, however, can be located in and around Santa Fe and Albuquerque, NM, and Cal Farley's Boys Ranch in Texas. The only identified individuals are Father Edward Francis Donelan, Catholic chaplain at the school 1958-1969; and Orlando R. Fernandez, editor of El Paisano, the Boys' School literary publication, and the probable photographer of items in this collection.
The 2 x 2 inch negatives are sleeved according to numbered and dated negative batches. The 6 trimmed photographs on 8 x 10 mounting board and 6 additional 8x10 prints are correlated with the negatives. 17 unique prints do not have corresponding negatives.
