    Washington died November 14, 1915 of congestive heart failure, so this series of photos may have been issued by Bain at that time. See also

    We see black faces and they're underexposed; it was okay to make sloppy images of these guys?

    Most people have a hard time exposing for people of colour, now why this is is where the guessing begins. It has gotten easier with digital, but before that, I can only imagine. Take a look at my postings.

    @ "CASHAW" : Nice of you to politely point out the differance of quality between 1940's photography & the quality available now , but.... since Graycard's profile sez hes a "photographer" he might just have known that!!!....unless hes making some B.S. point of look how the poor neegrowz were treated then....opening the door to some A.C.L.U. you owe us some-such-schitt..... get over it & be thankful photos of the poor neegrowz were evin kept , hell the photo survived the cival rights period ~amazing~ too bad attitudes cant change like technology does.......
