Many thanks, John for this very interesting article raising many 
questions directly addressing our continued use of the Rolleiflex TLR 
for documenting our family life and ... all other on-going projects on 
this list. Including street photography and self-portraits ;-)

I was just wondering whether new negatives or images had been recently 
found.

Since 2009, when we could read on this blog
http://vivianmaier.blogspot.com/
the following sentence by John Maloof:
" ... Out of the 30-40,000 negatives I have in the collection, about 
10-15,000 negatives were still in rolls, undeveloped from the 
1960's-1970's. I have been successfully developing these rolls. I still 
have about 600 rolls yet to develop...."

... the actual number of negatives is now reaching 100,000, including 
colour negs and many images taken with a 35 mm camera as well.

This makes a very impressive number of images for an amateur photographer !
