It's a shame because they have some of the coolest ads and editorials, but the paper quality is one of the worst I've ever seen, a far cry from the one used for Vogue, even at the touch. With Amica even a good Canon scanner like mine has its limits. I didn't desaturate, it's just like that unfortunately

15 hours ago15 hr I totally hear you and understand what you mean but you would immediately say no if you would have ever seen Rebecca in reality. Rebecca had a perfect porcelain skin and a supernice and very British personality but she had a massive chin portion (far more than the incorrect girl that also has a bigger chin but not as massive as Rebecca). I think this was also the problem why she didn’t stay long in the business. Clients had a problem with that massive chin. I just looked and checked if I can still find her material in our agency vaults but unfortunately everything is deleted after a good 25 years :(

THAT's archiving!Makes total sense and too cool that you still have the material of your mom 👍🤩 For the past 20 years we have been archiving the digital model material as long as we were allowed to when it comes data protection laws. Rebecca‘s case is the 94-98 phase when scanning just slowly started and the first agencies started their first homepages. At that time one deffo still worked with hard copies and bought magazines to put the tearsheets into the real books with which the clients worked. We still have plenty of cutting files full of tearsheets, test pictures, comps, campaigns, slides and other materials of our models and former models - particularly the models that we discovered ourselves or that we were/are motheragency of. But you can imagine how many models moved over our boards in 35 years of existence when always representing 300-400 models at the same time. It’s many many thousands of models and it is impossible to keep the cutting files of all of them. Some of the models with lots of publications and long careers such as the 90s supers have or had even 3 or 4 big A3 cutting files jampacked with unsorted material. And of course there are sometimes clean ups and then hard copy material of inactive models will be destroyed. The space the space….:) Actually crazy when looking at the prices for vintage ads, editorials or full magazines on eBay….. The time the time….:))
13 hours ago13 hr I sympathize with you bontempi. I had a chance to visit our central negative library in Ottawa while I was still serving. They have old glass plates with photographer-made emulsion going back over a hundred years. The stuff from the war years takes up rooms! It was all being digitized (slowly) when I was there and they had to be careful with some of the old brittle negatives. The sizes where all over the place, especially the weird aerial film formats (the stuff I worked with was 9 1/2 inches wide and 400 feet long). Because of the freedom of information act, EVERYTHING has to be kept. That's resulted in photo folks not shooting like crazy. Everything has to be annotated too.That's why I'm sooooo anal about annotating and archiving anything I do for myself and the family. Negatives and prints will last a long time while digital gets lost and deleted. We learned early that CD's and DVD's don't last either. Believe it or not, tape...good old tape is still the king of longevity.

Believe it or not, tape...good old tape is still the king of longevity.And guess what - we have a gazillion of video tapes of all formats with interviews of our models with tv appearances, Look of the Year and Elite Model Look, showreels etc. And not long ago I decided to digitalize them but my VHS player recently gave up…🤪😆 But I am on it when it comes to moving material and that’s interesting stuff from the end of the 80s and all thru the 90s. I recently digitalized the video of Diane Kruger‘s discovery as a 15 year old „just to win the Vespa“ 😁We both seem to have a tendency to be collectors obviously. So what’s your sin? Mine are US muscles bikes of the 60s and German Bonanza bikes of the 70s. And Hot Wheels redliners of the 60s and 70s and blackwalls of the 70s and 80s 🤣Oh and I have a vinyl record collection of 9000 12inches and LPs and am an old DJ….😎
7 hours ago7 hr Ya had to start that didn't ya? My collections are small or digital. Firstly, I have boxes of older bridal magazines (70's to 2000) that I've scanned and stuck on a Tumblr blog. So far I have 54,909 scans and another 98 magazines to go. The collection continues to grow, magazine by magazine. ( https://www.tumblr.com/blog/vintageweddingdresses )My BIG collection involves vintage Jaguar sports cars. So far I have exactly one...but I will have owned it for 50 years come August of this year. The only part that could be called a 'collection' is the piles of spare and original parts scattered under the stairs, in the shed and tucked away around the house.Uploading Attachment...
