If anyone is interested, contact me offline and I can email it to you.
Fair enough... there are a lot of stock photos created off the original neg on the internet. What I meant is that it doesn't look like a photo developed and printed in 1914 at first glance by the scan.
If it was, and could be confirmed as such it would be worth a lot of money.
