You're making me wish I'd seen the show. I love some of Adams' early 8x10
contact prints as published in the portfolios. Never been fond of the
over-enlarged white mountains and black skies calendar stuff, but I'd like
to see more originals of the original work, especially in the form of the
vintage contact prints.---Carl
