We have Daguerreotypes, tintypes, Ambrotypes, Callotypes, albumin prints, cartes de visite, and varied and sundry photgraphica- labeled by her before her memory failed her. I hope I can , as we say, 'Get a round tuit' and do the same for some of the images I took in my youth, of places that have since been razed and rendered unrecognizable! We talk about archival prints, but we rarely give any thought to our succesors sorting through the jumbles we'll leave!! Dan
