Over the past decade we have been purchasing and accumulating 1000's of photographs, negatives, color slides and transparencies. 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 and slide 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 they can be sold separately.

Whenever possible we will share any source information or identifiers about the subject matter.

Image Date- We are often asked how we were able to determine the date of a slide, photograph or negative, to which there is more then one answer. When using a specific year that evidence comes from one or more of several sources. In the case of slides those after 1959 are usually date stamped when processed, we also use slide tray liner notes, memos written on the slide, evidence presented by other slides/photos/negatives within the same grouping, logs or journals kept by the original owner and visual evidence presented in the image itself. When the precise year is unknown but the period is clear will use general terms such as 1940s, 1950s, 1960s...etc.
