Collection of 24 Death Valley 4 x 5-inch Photo Negatives Negatives all appear to be in fine condition as are the paper sleeves. One photo in glassine sleeve. Varied assortment of film notch codes but most of the sleeves are identified with the name "Interbay". Most likely these are copy negatives gathered from a variety of sources.
