While I can certainly understand collectors being skittish and extremely hesitant to come forward or share their prints, why would they be fundamentally against scanning them? I get not wanting to share the scan, but isn’t one of the major points of collecting to preserve said object? And isn’t scanning the print one of the best ways to preserve it, considering all film has a finite shelf life, no matter how well taken care of it might be?
