picture negative

The image archive houses a collection of preserved paper photographs, pictures, photo postcards, photo albums, picture negatives, and slides of German and international military history.

The new print was made "from the original 35mm nitrate picture negative, a 35mm safety duplicate negative, and a 35mm safety up-and-down track negative."

The effort was undertaken by film distributor Shanthi Chokkalin-gam, who stated that "The sound negative was totally gone and the five to six reels from the picture negative were damaged to a great extent".

In 1937 and 1938 Weston won back-to-back Guggenheim Fellowships, the grants enabling him to buy a car and crisscross the country in search of new subject matter; in these two years, he produced approximately 1,500 picture negatives.
