Tuesday Talk: Decoding Old Photos

Old photographs offer us a chance to discover all sorts of things about ourselves and our history, if you know what to look for. Learn how to identify early photographic techniques and how to spot clues the camera captured to help you determine how old a picture is. Discovering the age of a photograph can help with sorting through all the unlabeled family photos we all seem to have and perhaps provide a name to a face. Participants are welcome bring a photo or two with them for discussion. Speaker: Heidi Campbell-Shoaf, Museum Director / Chief Curator, DAR Museum
