I’m glad to see that the color photos I did of the Poster Project have been preserved, I was afraid that they were gone forever.
It was a close thing! Thanks to Charley Hafen and his resourceful ex-webmaster, I was able to make those PDFs from material that was formerly online. Sorry the resolution is so low — maybe the original prints or negs will show up one day.
I gave the negatives to Charlie when he had his shop in the Peery Hotel building in late 1995 or early 1996. As far as I know, that was the last that anyone saw them.
