1. One framed photograph of the couple. | | Archivist Note | On 23 February 2010, Jeanine noticed that there appeared to be some type of growth or deterioration on the bottom edge of the photograph and removed the photograph from frame and glazing for observation. A cardboard backing had been used behind the photo itself and there was no barrier between the sides of the picture and the wood of the frame. The photograph had adhered to the glazing in one place and had started to adhere in another.
The unframed picture will now be stored in the flat file. This is an example of how inadequate framing techniques damage a photograph over time.
