By the 1960s, The Associated Press was THE premier provider of photographic images used by newspapers across the globe. This lot contains more than 23,500 DIFFERENT Associated Press laser photos. Until you actually hold them, these photos appear virtually identical to the dark room developed photos. The photos are on much thinner paper-like stock. The images in the lot include hundreds of historical events, famous personalities, sporting events and every day occurrences.
Highlights include: Super Bowls, World Series games, Stanley Cup Championships, U.S. Presidents, World Wars, aviation, unforgettable boxing bouts, music and entertainment, and many other items and/or people of note. This sizable photographic offering features figures and events included (but not limited to) Michael Jackson, Amelia Earhart, Presidents (Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan, Ford, and Carter), the Vietnam war, auto racing, natural disasters, early space exploration, civil rights, parades, and so much more.
The break up value of this collection alone is tremendous and with more than 23,500 individual images, this is a lifetime worth of eBay listing opportunities. A virtual small business!
