Antique Cellulose Nitrate Film Negative Native American Girl Child Playing HS Bell 20’s

I am selling 1 negative

Large format 5 x 4

The subject is Native American Girl baby child playing. Beautiful clothing.

I have purchased a large collection of negatives mostly in large format by Photographer H.S. Bell.

Hugh Stevens Bell (1899-1989) was a writer, researcher, historian, and photographer; his Southwest images were published in National Geographic.

In the collection I have found two envelopes with his name., these envelopes are not included with the auction.

There are a couple of envelopes with dates of 1925 and some in 1930s.

Most negatives are in envelopes giving negative number and subject. Some negatives are loose.The photos of his name on envelope are not for sale but I'm using them as reference . These were purchased out of estate and as found.I have found H.S. Bell as a Real Photo Postcard RPPC Photographer . Also auctions of hand tinted photographs

I have photographed the negatives on a white screen IPad and then used an inverter for a positive image . I am not an expert and a better scan could provide a better picture.

I will ship First Class at 2.00.

I have hundreds of negatives from H.S. Bell.

Some are dated on envelope 1925- 1935.

Negatives of Bell and Parks( assistant?) . Their Ford Truck vehicle in different locations. My favorite Chuck Wagon Cook Clair Haight.

References to friends Stanton Ida Mae Catherine Borum pictures of trading post interior, rugs pots.

75+ Native Americans Navajo mostly women some males ranchers, Goat farmers, children, etc.

I could sell these as a lot for an interested buyer and they could have the whole collection .
