Being where they are it makes sense that they would have the definitive collection of Woodstock photos. As the 25 year anniversary of the festival was approaching, the agency put out calls looking for photos beyond what they had in the files. And it turns out all but one of the photographers who responded had shot ektachrome and all of the pictures had faded beyond use-----except for one who still had pix in the little yellow boxes, unedited, original Kodachromes, and they were not only good photos, but looked as good as the day they were shot. And made the photographer a lot of money and contributed to the history of the world. Donal Philby San Diego
