Before starting  your collection of antique photographs first ask yourself  these questions- 1.The subject and type of photograph would you collect.  2. What price limit  to pay for each type.  3. What condition do you want that photo to be in.

 

When Collecting try and  purchase photos that are clear and free from bends and spotting. You may also like the photograph to have a backstamp of the City and State and Photographers name, but this may  not be that important to you as long as that information in on the front bottom of each photo.

The most important part to collecting is to enjoy what you are doing.   Have Fun Collecting.

Some Subjects To Think About Collecting:

Wedding Couples

 

Children

Men with Mustaches

 

Sisters

 

Family Groups

 

By Photographer & State and City

 

Plus Many Other Types
