Yeras ago I went to an auction where they were actaully selling old family photos. That turned me off so much I never went to another auction. and that was a very long time ago.

I understand completely. We go to estate sales and see family photos all the time. Sometimes boxes of pictures, or even albums. I can't believe the family would not want these. I also can't understand the attraction that people have in buying these family photos except for the history of the background/buildings, and/or the clothes the people are wearing. That I can understand since my husband collects stereo view cards for the history. But many times at sales the pictuers really aren't that old (for history) and they have them out for sale. Go figure.
I bought the glass negatives mainly because at the time I never saw anything like it before. Thought they looked really interesting. Love old things and it's always fun to come across something that you have never seen before.
Thanks on the tips of what to do with them. I'll have to get them out someday and do something with them.
