This Has All Of The Makings Of A Good Luck Story,
painter and collector Rick Norsigian says he bought 65 negatives in 2000 for just $45 (£34), but it is thought that they could 10 years later be worth up to $200m! the negatives, a print of one pictured above are claimed to have been taken Ansel Adams, one of Americas greatest landscape photographers,
Adams at work above in the 1930's, but of course with this huge sum of money involved there is claim and counter claim from the Adams family and experts from the side of Rick Norsigian backing his claim, well I hope it all goes well for all concerned and an agreeable settlement can be worked out, but what a stroke of luck for Rick if they really are unknown examples of the work of Adams.
