Comments on: Harry C. Mann Photograph Collection http://www.virginiamemory.com/blogs/multiple_exposure/2012/01/13/harry-c-mann-photograph-collection/ Catablog of the Prints and Photographs Collection @ the Library of Virginia Mon, 22 Apr 2013 01:43:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Garth http://www.virginiamemory.com/blogs/multiple_exposure/2012/01/13/harry-c-mann-photograph-collection/comment-page-1/#comment-55 Garth Tue, 27 Nov 2012 14:29:55 +0000 http://www.virginiamemory.com/blogs/multiple_exposure/?p=1110#comment-55 The success of Harry Mann was in part due to the love and support of his brother James. Harry had been involved with photography as a serious amatuer for a few years before James and partners opened a concession at the Jamestown Expo and Harry was brought in as the photographer. Harry moved into the home of James in 1907 and the letters that shed some light on Harry ended. I look forward to seeing the new photos as well.
Also, prints of the plates that document Norfolk are held in the Sargent Memorial Room of the Norfolk Public Library. They are wonderfully annotated and that information should become part of the metadata of the Mann Collection.

We are currently cataloging a large group of the Mann negatives that were never available online, and we are finding GREAT new images. Stay tuned – hopefully within the next year (or so) there will be an additional thousand Harry C. Mann photos available through DigiTool.
