Dollars A Negative: Other photographers are constantly searching for the best retouching they can find and will gladly pay a dollar, two dollars, three dollars, or more per negative for careful work.
Unless you are a really expert retoucher don't do that work yourself but seek out the best retoucher you can find (see the classified section of the telephone book in your city or consult the advertising columns of the photographic magazines ) and pay the price for premium work, which will run from a dollar to two or three dollars a negative.
Between world wars I wrote a series of fifteen thrift guides on fifteen European countries. It was the Fifty Dollar Series, meaning France on Fifty Dollars, England on Fifty Dollars, Italy on Fifty Dollars, etc. They were republished in London under the title of the Ten Pound Series. Before that prolonged effort, Frank Schoonmaker wrote Through Europe on Two Dollars a Day. Since World War II Frederic E. Tyarks' Europe on a Shoestring has been a hardly perennial and since 1953 The Poor Man's Guide to Europe by David Dodge has appeared in successive editions, all of which goes to show that we who write, or have written, for travelers are well aware of the axiomatic importance of stretching holiday dollars. |
