This is an artificial collection of photographs and other materials assembled by the Philadelphia Jewish Archives Center to document Jewish-owned businesses, camps, organizations, and community members in the Greater Philadelphia region during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In many cases, the photographs in this collection are copy prints and negatives made during an initiative by the Philadelphia Jewish Archives Center to collect visual documentation about the community, but return originals to the donors.
