Back in August of 1992, I noticed an article in my local newspaper, The Easton-Times, regarding a local photographer who restored photos. Nancy Darwin had recently rescued thousands of negatives from Rembrandt Studio, a local studio that was downsizing and didn’t have room to store them in their new location. Some of the negatives dated back to the late 1930s. Calling them “priceless heirlooms,” she offered them to the general public in the hope that someone would find their family members’ negatives amongst the inventory.
