A documentary photographer and photo preservationist painstakingly restored thousands of glass plate photographs that reveal what life was like in New England 160 years ago.
While initially skeptical, Cappucci took them in after seeing the collections’ high quality and realizing most of them were taken in the same area of Massachusetts that she is from.The earliest photos in the collection are from the 1860s and span to the 1930s. They have been dated through the clothes the subjects are wearing, the tools seen in the pictures, and the general lifestyle that people led in New England at that time.
“After I took the class I learned to only use distilled water, you can only clean them with cotton and distilled water and I even got the best cotton for the job.”Documentary photographer and photo preservationist Terri Cappucci. Cappucci’s perfectionist approach to restoring the slides led to her starting a GoFundMe page to help pay for the supplies needed to do the job properly; she raised $7,000.
