The Rescued Film project has been circulating the blogs lately since they are trying to raise funds to pay for developing and scanning costs for a bunch of film from an unknown photographer.  In one way its kind of cool to open up another view into history by bringing these photos back but I do question the motives of the people behind this project.  The strong copyrights claims and prominent bids to sell prints on their main page seem to contradict the “Archive of Images” billing somewhat.   The Vivian Maier camp had a couple things going for them – first off she was a true photographic genius and secondly they had either more style or more innocence in the commercialization of her work.      What do you think?    I won’t be supporting the Rescued Film Project myself.
