Description
At the beginning of this month I had the great luck of inheriting 83 Albumen prints of Italy from a historian friend of my family. These prints showing different cities and landscapes of Italy were always kept away from light and humidity according to the family of the passed away. This complete package of 83 albumen prints is now on auction with the hope of finding the right collector, historian, artist or certainly anyone who is interested in Italy and its history. Condition of the prints: All prints are mounted on beige cardboard at the size of approximately 30x38 cm. Sizes of prints vary between 19x25cm and 20x27cm. The mounting cardboards are slightly waved due to age. Some are slightly dusted. The condition of the prints is very good. Some have very tiny scratches above, I guess due to the placement of one on the other. None of the prints have missing, detached or ripped of parts. All prints are separated through archival quality paper sheets lying in between. The non faded and sharp images prove the correct handling in the past. Prints are either branded with studio or photographers information, numbered or titled below ( see pictures ) Personal information: I am a photographer myself and lecturer for photography in a private high school of arts in Germany. Besides lecturing I am working as an artist in Paris. Currently I am collecting worldwide Albumen prints of Turkey for a foundation of photography I wish to realize in the future. My specialized fields, in addition to classic black and white photography, are fine art printing and conservation of photographic prints. Due to my above mentioned foundation I know very well about the difficulties of providing such valuable historical prints and have therefore kept the price reasonable and fair for all who are interested. Nevertheless all offers are welcome! Shipping: The prints will be packed very safely in a suitable box and will certainly be shipped insured with DHL. Shipping will be made from Germany. Shipping costs will be (total weight between 8 to 10 kilograms): Within Germany: 22 Euros Within the European Union (including United Kingdom): 55 Euros To U.S.A: 68 Euros All other countries please ask for shipping costs before bidding. Payment: Paypal is preferred. Account for bank transfer can be sent after the end of the auction. This is an private auction and a return will not be accepted. Ebay fees will certainly be carried by me. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you have further questions or wishes. Good luck!
