Commentary
You can see the three different registers of color at the edges. This is more stable than chromogenic prints. For printing for advertising, say, they would just crop the separate color edges out. It is exciting to see something from the 1940s that is still so vibrant. (Britt Salvesen, Curator and Department Head, Photography Department, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, March 30-31, 2022)
