Proof Prints
- Scope and content:
-
Proof prints represent a selection of images marked by Gedney on the contact sheets for further editing and finishing. Most measure 4x6 or 5x7 inches. However, at the end of this Calcutta series there is also a group of 20 large 8 1/2 x 11 3/8 inch prints, as well as a few smaller 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 prints.
The proofs are arranged by legacy id codes assigned by Gedney, and are roughly chronological. In most cases, titles originate from original labels; some folders were assigned titles by library staff according to the known content.
