Conservation
Most glass negatives have silver mirroring, accretions, flaking, and loss of the glass support. Some show signs of previous mould exposure. Prior poor quality storage and processing has degraded the quality, these are also apparent in the associated prints. Several glass negatives were broken. Two nitrate film show yellowing of the support.
