Hi,
On the subject of the Photo History List, if it is still active, could
somebody post the address for subscribing?
Thank you.
Cheers,

DEAR LIST,
I just saw a lovely reproduction of Roy DeCarava's "Man on a Stoop
with Baby, 1950" in a Folio Society book of THE 100 GREATEST PHOTOGRAPHS.
The repro in this book is excellent. I was amazed at the tonal
range from highlights through open, rich shadows and the combination of
fine grain and acutance. I had heard that DeCarava worked with 35mm
later in his career but I find it hard to believe that this image was
made with anything smaller than 2 1/4 if not 4X5 considering that it was
1950. Does anyone know for CERTAIN (not from conjecture or personal
preference) what format film/negative he used to make this image?
If the photo history list is still active, please post this
question there as well.
THANKS
CHEERS!
BOB
