  • Indholdsbeskrivelse
    Collection of material relating to Gypsies and Travellers including research and writings by Dawson, presscuttings, material relating to Gypsy Societies and Gypsies and government legislation, teaching packs, publications including reports and academic papers, sheet music, illustrative material including photographs, drawings, posters, postcards and cigarette cards and plans of caravans. In this catalogue many of the record titles and descriptions have been recorded exactly as they were labelled in the past. Descriptive terms used in historical records may be considered derogatory or offensive today but reflect the attitudes and language of the time. The terminology used by the people that created the records is part of the story they tell. Where the Archivist has created a new record title or description, the terms Gypsy or Traveller have been used.
