PSA/DNA Photograph Type Classification
- Type I -
A 1st generation photograph, developed from the original negative,
during the period (within approximately two years of when the picture
was taken).
- Type II -
A photograph, developed from the original negative, during the period
(more than approximately two years after the picture was taken).
- Type III -
A 2nd generation photograph, developed from a duplicate negative or
wire transmission, during the period (within approximately 2 years of
when the picture was taken).
- Type IV -
A 2nd generation photograph (or 3rd or later generation), developed
from a duplicate negative or wire transmission, during a later period
(more than approximately two years after the picture was taken).
- Type 1 photographs are the most desirable and valuable of the four photograph types because of their vintage and originality.
- Type 3 photographs are commonly reffered to as "Wire Photos".
- Many
Type 4's were issued after 1970, either for latter-era publication of
earlier original images or for the general public consumption.
- Duplicate
negatives are produced by taking a photograph of an existing original
photograph thereby creating a second negative that is of inferior
quality to the original
- All
photograph types are collectible; a Type 3 photograph of a Hall of
Famer Mickey Mantle may be worth considerably more than a Type 1
photograph of a common player from the 1920's.
