[alt-photo] Re: German magazines and museums

[Vedos]

Hi Chris,

I'd love to learn of those European gum (& other alt) print collections too, because in a month or so our "staff" (of 2 persons ;) is going to spend two weeks going through some collections & museums in Switzerland, Germany, Belgium... maybe in France & Netherlands too... BTW, thanks for all your recommendations Roger K., Jean D., Chris N., ... maybe we'll need your guidance later ;)...

The Folkwang Museum is moving to another place, the opening will be on January 30, I think, we'll definitely go there in February too. 

And, we'll be in Paris in early June... a nice time of the year to spend a few days there.

Dear All, (sent twice because I sent the first to the old sask. address)

Going through all my German sources on gum right now, and I am wondering if anyone on the list is aware of the differences between the Photographische Rundschau from around 1900 and the Wiener Photographische Blaetter--did one cater more to art photography than the other?

Thanks to whomever suggested the Google translator.  Even though it doesn't do a perfect job with German from around that time, it does enough for me to get the gist of the article.

Another question:  I have on record that the Folkwang Museum in Essen has a large collection of Kuehn gum prints, and the Hamburger Museum has many Behren prints.  Any other museum in Germany have an excellent not-to-miss gum collection?

Anyone seen Paul Anderson's extensive gum collection at U of A in Tucson?

Does the Ransom center have a large gum collection?

As you can tell, I am seeking large gum collections, having only seen the Eastman House's collection to date, aside from gum prints hither and thither.

Chris
