Over the past decade we have been purchasing and accumulating 1000's of photographs, negatives, color slides, transparencies and films. Most were purchased from estates in the Chicago area. In age the range from the late 1800's all through the 1900's up until 1975 or so. Anything newer then that we tended to shy away from. None of the images that we are selling are modern day reproductions, printed by an inkjet or laser printer. All are in the format in which we purchased them. That said, the negatives we sell are the only known to exist. The same can't be said for photographs, although it is highly unlikely that another exist in most cases. Perhaps tucked away in another family members photo book or shoe box, there may be another, but that is beyond our scope. There may also be instance where both a negative and developed photograph exist in our collection, due to the large quantity we are dealing with joining the two may be difficult and the can be sold separately.
