ps.. one of my jobs in a previous life was making 35mm copies & 10x8 prints of every
old photo and glass negative in a specialist museums dusty ramshackle archive.
So I do have some understanding of the sheer hard work and financial constictions that apply to such projects
to enable adequate public access and serious expert research.

Luckily [and because I worked my arse off] the work was just about completed
before state funding was arbitrarily withdrawn and I lost that
very interesting & rewarding job.
