    Default Sorting out theatre group things... Thoughts on antique photos?

    Years ago we were given a box of papers - sheet music, 19'teens and 20s theatre magazines and such. I only briefly went through it, saw it was mostly sheet music, and put it with the groups sheet music box. I have just been sorting it out *properly* and found a couple of Victorian studio portrait photos - no idea who the gentleman is, in the photos but the photos are stamped "The Swiss Studio, Sydney". I was wondering if there is any copyright attached still, (I googled the studio and it doesnt show up) and if there is any market for random antique portrait photographs, as they arent much use to us unless they get used as part of a theatre set or two in future.

    Any info/ advice on the photos would be greatly appreciated - keep as props, or sell?

    Wow, they sound cool! I don't know if there's a market for antique sheet music and photos, as I don't sell (or own) anything like that, but it seems to me like a collector might be interested, especially if the items are in good condition. You might want to try listing a few of them and seeing what happens.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Yes, agree with Sues.
    If they aren't much use to your group dark, why not list a few to see if you get much/any response?
