Leaves resemble Pinanga leaves. (P. insignis for example). Leaflets with long points; 3 to 10 nerved; terminal leaflets notched. Nerves ending in notches. Petiole very short. Leaf color a dark, glossy green both sides, smooth; leaf sheath 25 in. long, light green, with many small brown spots. Spathe with single sheath, yellowish green, 15 x 3 1/2 in. Flower cluster peculiar. Female flowers crowded in pairs on central axis, forming solid spadix. From between each pair of female flowers there arises a long, 6 in., slender branch of inflorescence bearing only male flowers. This branch has a slender pedical, 1 in. long and may bear 100 male flowers (50 pairs). These male flower branches conceal the female spadix almost completely and when the flower cluster is held upright they hang down and give the whole ivory white structure a beautiful plume like appearance.

I hold up a transparent negative to a dark background, it reflects light and turns positive.
Original photo was of a papermaker in Northeast Vietnam and her son, eyeing my guide as he demonstrates their paper press: a lever weighed down by large heavy rocks.
[I'm using the negative to print Cyanotype illustrations for my travel book, a search for handmade paper through SE Asia]
Preparing the Negatives to be cut into three sections to be placed into the Plastic Wallet so then next week I will be making a contact sheet for these.

Found a collection of old glass negatives collecting dust in my dad's studio and thought I'd scan them in.
Glass negatives from Carbon County, PA.
I have no information as to the specific locations or the people in the photos so if anyone knows anything please feel free to comment. That way I can properly catalog the information with that specific negative and preserve its history for future generations.

I received these negatives as part of a lot. Nothing spectacular but perhaps one day someone will recognize someone in the photos as an old family member. Nothing would make me happier than to return these back to the family.
Clue #1: One of the negatives in this lot was shot at the Corfe Castle, Dorset England.
