FS: factory SWT photos

[typ901]

large B&W prints of the studio shoot. sizes are approx. 11 1/2 X 9". guessing this would have been the first photo session for the new targa. all have factory stamp on the reverse. $40 ea. postpaid to any U.S. address.

i've sent you a PM. thanks.

I have no reason to suspect that they are reprints. close inspection reveals a level of detail that could only come from original negatives.
the party I received these from has connections @ the factory.

I've received the photos. They are high-quality and appear "period correct" (meaning that they are of the correct photographic quality and printed on the sort of paper that photographers of the era would have used, with the proper sorts of 'mistakes' that would no longer be acceptable to professional photographers). For example, there are bright spots and reflections in the polished floor from reflected photo-lighting, and the background is not photo-shopped. They have a very 'vintage' look which I feel is very collectible.

Thank you!

glad you're happy I'm positive they're original factory prints. what's weird is I've never seen them this large before. (ie; werksfotos are ~ 5 X 7")
for anyone else interested, I have 1 more full set available along with a few individual prints without the model.

only pix w/o the lady remain. $40 ea. postpaid to any U.S. address. elsewhere at actual cost.

Interesting that the factory and the photog chose white for the shoot - wonder what the rationale for the color choice

Could be yellow. They would have about the same tone in B&W.
