Railroad slides. Original or not?? SAMPLES!!!.
Hello everyone. I just purchased a 10,000+ railroad slide collection. A lot of the slides are local shots from the Omaha/Co. Bluffs area, but there are 1000's of them from all over the country. Question is how can I tell the originals from the copies? I know some of them have the photograhpers name on them and a copyright. Those are no brainers. But then there boxes of slides with all the info about the subject, date, etc, but no photographer name. So what do I do? I want to sell these slides but I need more info on them.
So here are 4 samples, random draws. Please keep in mind these are just shot in Macro with a digital camera, so the quality is not there. The slides are much better.
1. C&S B4R no.608 2-8-0 Ft. Collins 12-21 58
2 Rio Grande 2-8-8-2 No. 3611 Castle Rock 9-7-52
3. Erie PA2 No.863 Pt. Jervis 11-11-70
4. Mo Pac E8A No. 7021 Denver 1-30-65 Buzzsaws and Eagles!!!
