Subject: Question old glass negatives
Our museum has just been given approx. 80 glass negatives. Does anyone kno
w how we get these developed, the value of this collection, and whether we
should get them developed at all?
They are all dated either 1919 or 1920 and are taken by a local pioneer bus
iness owner when he was in the service, during World War I, and stationed a
ll over the world but most particularly in Russia and Siberia. They look q
uite fascinating as we view them ourselves.
Thank you for your help.
