100 years of history, one acid-free sleeve at a time

The Hillsborough (N.H.) Historical Society is a quarter of the way into processing a collection of 40,000 negatives of photos of people and places in the Hillsborough area. The collection was started in 1866 as the files of a local studio photographer which were handed down to successive studio owners. Volunteers are transferring them to new acid-free sleeves, entering any descriptive information available into a database, and scanning them so prints can be made. The 10,000th negative will be unveiled on Tuesday at a ceremony at the Fuller Public Library. [100 years of history, one acid-free sleeve at a time]
