Hi guys,
First-time poster (& hopefully not the last),
I'm a 41-year old from west London who's just about to bury his dad. I grew up with Ansel Adams and dad even built a darkroom, complete with wet bench, in our garage. he died suddenly leaving us with a lot of stuff. One of his wishes was that "decent' stuff shouldn't be sold too cheap. Now, me and my sisters, have the unenviable task of sorting the wheat from the chaff. There are two enlargers and, probably, a Mamiya Press, amongst a whole host of other non-digital stuff.
Please, any help from old-timers, as to how best make him happy and ensure that anything of proper value/"worth" ends up in a good home. We're happy to donate to a photography school/art college for free, as long as it is put to best use.
All/any advice very gratefully received.
thanks
Ralph
