The paper follows the musealisation of the collection of black and white negatives from the Legacy of Aleksandar Simić, photographer of the Yugoslav Army in the homeland, i.e. its integration into the fund of the Museum of Yugoslavia, which has not yet collected materials of Ravna Gora provenance. Also, considerations were raised regarding the legal status of donated material in cultural institutions so that, in correlation with those considerations, questions related to the museological treatment of objects that arrived to the Museum would be answered. By that, we primarily mean the process of museal selection, i.e. valorisation of donated photographic material, its digital and documentary processing, and finally, consideration of the communication potential of the received collection in relation to the Museum’s fund, which can raise numerous challenges for the researchers due to its heterogeneity and nature
