Photos in Legendary's Auction

[Matt]

Does anyone know if the photos in Legendary's current auction are Type 1s? The minimum bids bely that they are, but nowhere in the description does it say that they are and many of them have no markings on the back at all that could be used to identify them.

Here are some as an example:

Matt:

I saw the Paterson, NJ (Wagner) photo in person at the National in Baltimore and it is definitely not a Type I. Not sure about the other two that you mentioned but my guess is that many are and many are not in this auction. It would be nice if Legendary could identify them in their description (unless they don't want to take the responsibility and then end up with return requests after the auction if they are wrong).

So, at the moment, someone is paying $125 + BP for a photo that might have been printed 10 years ago...

A lot of the photos are re-strikes.. NOT worth buying!!

Best of luck!!

That first one is definitely a later restrike.

Whatever scanning process they are using is not helping their cause either.
