In our photographic culture the context of an image can be easily manipulated to fit the needs of the artist.   As an audience in this culture, we rely on a theme or story to hold a value for the content in which we look at.  These stories and personal narratives run into and throughout are uses of photography.   But what if these stories are unknown or tossed aside.   For me, finding a collection of exposed negatives at a flea market or estate sale is similar to finding a book with a missing title and pages.   What you get is small descriptions with no historical context.  A choose your own adventure perhaps, using your own imagination to create an outcome that can easily be mistaken for reality.
