Along these lines: we strongly believe a dutch museum has 'glass
negatives' of the ship. Would that be worth pursueing? Can these
negatives
still be printed (or scanned)? What size would a 'glass negative' have?
As
they probably aren't "easy access photography": would these negatives
have
the same tonality problems?
The negatives could be any size up to about an A3 sheet of paper. Most
likely size would be around A5.
Ah, *large*. Thought so :o)
They can still be scanned or printed but would probably have to be done
professionally (in this case, the profession having more to do with
preservation than photography) so could be expensive. They will have
tonality "problems" - but they will also have colour "problems". 8-)
None of the above would discourage me from trying to get the work done
if it was my ancestors. YMMV.
MM probably won't V ;-)
Thanks for the information. Time to chase the lead...
