Well, the material from Hunt was consigned by Photo File and has been in our archives for the past 40 years. It could be that we reproduced the Strunk shot for Casey's. Seeing what else they've got on the walls and if it matches other images from our archive might back that up.

There is a bunch more vintage photos on the walls.

Happen to have any shots of what else is there?

I also have a Nelson "Chicken" Hawks from the BB Magazine archive. It is marked up for use. Is it worth cleaning? How is it accomplished and any risk?

Try a little warm water on a cotton ball. Start in a small area, say the ground under Hawks' feet. Put a piece of paper towel over the print and place it in a heavy book when it dries, then repeat. If you tackle a big area at once, the photo will curl up. Even after you get it clean, there may still be a "ghost" around the image. Some guys like them all slopped up by the newspaper art department. I don't know if it is worth more restored, but it certainly will be a cleaner looking image. Don't do too much scrubbing as you could begin to remove the actual image.
