No question, Dan. That's why it is such a joy to be able to view
original prints. We're fortunate, for such a small city (Tucson), to
have a facility such as The Center For Creative Photography.
Members may contact the head archivist and she will set out for you
the work of your choice. At the appointed time you show up and
are alone with the original prints of Adams and many others whose
work is archived there.
A near religious experience!
