i. Portraits

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

This sub-series of what are mainly promotional portraits of figures from the world of pro wrestling includes roughly 80 per cent of the photographs in the Pfefer Collection. Approximately 3,000 different subjects are represented. As one might expect, wrestlers who worked with Pfefer are represented more extensively than those who did not. Files are arranged alphabetically, by the subject's most familiar name. Other names associated with the subject also appear in the folder title. It is possible that a given individual's photos may be filed under more than one name, though this is unintentional.
