    I have a quantity of old photos (some glass plates) dating from around 1890 to 1910. I've scanned them and enhanced them.
    Many of them I can identify people, location (by means of notes on the back) and there is the fashion aspect.
    I don't want to part with the originals, but am considering the idea of offering modern reproduction prints - either printed by myself or by an online printing service.

    Could I have some opinions, please?
    Is this a good idea, would there be a market for it?

    Good evening (at least it is here) Cajun.

    I did mention the "fashion aspect".

    This particular example is July 1890 and I can name the house complete with modern postcode, but I don't know who any of the people are. Others have the names of people but no (or only a vague, i.e. "in Manchester") location or no date.

    Just curious to know if there would be a market for reprints.
