[PRCo] Re: New Images on Historic Pittsburgh site

It's a lot crisper, but the green is still black and the cream is still
white.  Probably Anscochrome.  Photoshop seems to do well with the early
Ektachromes that turned red, though.

With a little extra work in Photoshop you an pretty much clean this up as
shown here.  Howard -----Original Message-----

Here's a poor color image from 2-5-50.  I found it among Harry Bartley's
slides, which have largely been destroyed by the ravages of time, due to
having been stored most improperly.  The fact that it wasn't Kodachrome
didn't help, either.  This is how Photoshop Elements automatically
"corrected" it.

I don't think so.   NCL used a NCL yellow with white and an olive  
stripe except in cities where the management held stronger sway such  
as Houston, Philadelphia and Baltimore .   West Penn used orange and  
cream with a sold green stripe.
