Antique Film Negative / Water, People, Etc. / Set Of 6 / Japanese / C. 1930s
Item History & Price
IMPORTANT NOTE: Beginning in April, Japan Post has not been accepting parcels bound for many countries, INCLUDING THE USA (from April 24). We don’t know how long this disruption will last, but until it ends we have had to place a block on buyers from those countries. If you are in one of those countries and find yourself blocked from bidding on our items, we apologize for the inconvenience. We will lift the blocks on individual countries as soon as Japan Post resumes service to them.... We thank everyone for their patience and understanding in these difficult times, —JD & KTD
June 18: Japan Post resumed airmail service to several European countries, including among others Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. July 1: Japan Post resumed service to Italy and New Zealand. July 17: Japan Post resumed service to China. Please note that there will probably be delivery delays in all countries.
REGARDING the UK: According to Japan Post’s English-language internet page, “Especially for mail items to the United Kingdom [and some other] countries/territories, loading items onto airplanes destined for these countries/territories is expected to take about three weeks.” If you’re in the UK, please take this into account before bidding.
This set of six Japanese film negatives appears to date to the 1930s, and mostly depicts water, with some people.
These negatives are still basically supple, and the emulsions are basically clear, but there is a little dust. Any significant flaws should show up in the sample scans. Some of the scans may have a pattern of vertical or horizontal lines which are not actually on the negatives, but rather come from our scanner.
The positive images in the sample photos are scans of the negatives with the colors reversed.Size:
Each image area is about W2 9/16" (65mm) X H1 9/16" (40mm).This item is set to ship via Air Mail, and should arrive within 7-14 days after being posted.
The postage charge shown for this listing applies to shipping anywhere in the world outside of Asia.
(Other items currently listed by Tetsuguchi.)
General Note about Shipping:Unless otherwise indicated, we ship all of our items via Standard Air Mail. Nonetheless, we are always happy to change shipping methods if faster (and thus more expensive) or cheaper (and thus slower) shipping is desired. The shipping options available are (from fastest and most expensive to slowest and least expensive): EMS, Air Mail, SAL (economy airmail), Surface.
Registered mail with tracking is also available for an additional US$4.00 above the standard Air Mail shipping cost stated in the description.
We are glad to combine multiple items for shipping, and of course will discount some of the postage charges for each item after the first one. Please note that the shipping discount is not large for heavy items, but for small, light things we will discount the shipping charges by 40-100 percent, depending on how heavy it is and how it needs to be packed.
We ship at least once and very often twice a week, and so most of the time items will be in the mail within no more than 10 business days after we have received payment. We also always send a brief note informing buyers when their items have shipped.
