Default me too

I think they should have done a better job at describing them. The photos that were made around the time of the actual event will be worth more, as already said. Some of these are on "whiter" looking paper and those are the ones that I would think would be later. The ones on the older looking, sort of brownish paper, are the more original to year taken, ones. It's actually fairly easy to tell them apart when holding them. I am far, far from a photo expert but have handled a few. Also, the older ones will have mfg/age marks in the pictures themselves...little bumps, bruises etc.....I think that gives them their authentic look too and makes them look more original to me.
