More
The pages of this book are actual glass plate negatives made by my great-great-grandfather George Carpenter Wheeler in 1901. I scanned both the negatives and the disintegrating envelopes they were stored in, and printed them via ink & laserjet. The negatives and prints from the scans are bound wire-edge style. Comes in custom box of wood, bookcloth & book board.
The four glass plate negatives used in this book are images of boats and waterways taken in the Boston Harbor in 1901.
