Fred, That is a great idea, as old photographs tend to deteriorate due to the chemical reactions inherent in the papers and effects of the "sanshi" (silverfish) having their day.
Behind every photograph, there is a story they say, but are the people who know the story still around? Anyways, this is one person who appreciates what you do. Please let me know if you require any contributions from me. Cheers, Gabriel. --- "Frederick Noronha (FN)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Would there be an interest in building up a public > archive of old Goan > photographs?
