Scope and arrangement
The House/Ballroom photographs collection contains eight photographic prints on glossy paperboard, arranged by subject into Ballroom and Portraits. Seven of the prints are 18" x 24", and one is 24" x 24". Five of the prints depict contestants at balls, and the remaining three photographs are portraits of queens and other performers.
The ballroom photographs show contestants preparing to walk or walking their categories. A photograph of Icon Baby Jourdan preparing to walk at the 1999 Garcon Runway ball and a photograph of an unidentified queen stepping onto a table at an unknown ball were taken by Gerard H. Gaskin. A photograph of unidentified house members posing with large fans was taken by Chantal Regnault. Of particular note is a photograph of Junior LaBeija emceeing a contestant's walk.
Three of the photographs were enlarged for printing, and have noticeable compression artifacts. There are no notations on any of the items.
