I hope they're legit! 'Twould be really neat to find an archive of Adams' early work. Given the preparation and general work needed to make a large glass plate negative then, they wouldn't be easily thrown away, perhaps relegated to an under-the-shelf storage spot, and dispersed as "2nd quality" at a later time, eh?

Thanks for bringing this to the attention of the forum!

They aren't mine. Maybe another Ansel wanna be trying to recreate some Ansel shots.

You'd think they could try to link the emulsuion or something else to Ansel's work. Maybe even finger prints?
