Since the introduction of photographic
portrait studios in 1840, photographs have been among the most treasured of family records but,
while most are long-lasting when stored optimally in archives, in
the home environment, they are all too often prone to fading and discoloration. In this slide lecture, Gary
Saretzky will provide guidance on how the life of family
photographs can be extended so that they can be passed down to
future generations. The lecture includes examples of
how old photographs can be enhanced or restored in the computer
after digitization.
Speaker: Gary D. Saretzky, archivist, educator, and
photographer, worked as an archivist for more than fifty years at
the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, Educational Testing
Service, and the Monmouth County Archives, where he was County
Archivist from 1994 to 2019.
