[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 117291, member: 6548"] I've said it before and I'll say it again I think it is a sad day in history when someone pays $300 bucks for a box of negatives from a photographer who expressly never showed her stuff to anyone in her lifetime and gave very few of her pictures away to try and manipulate her into being a major in the art world and are making handsome profits from it. She is not a major probably not any where near a minor either as the vast majority of her stills are like a lot of ours. That being said she is somewhat interesting to the photographer in me but the way they are exploiting it makes me sick. They have been charging like 2000 bucks for prints they are making and putting in shows. How the hell do they know if that is how she would have had them printed? [/QUOTE]
