rogues gallery
Police photo collection
A rogues gallery is a collection of photographs of known criminals, kept by police for identification purposes.
The term extends to any assembled group of disreputable or suspicious characters: The documentary featured a rogues gallery of con artists and swindlers.
It can be used humorously for any motley assortment: His ex-girlfriends formed quite the rogues gallery.
