Image Date- We are often asked how we were able to determine the date of a slide, photograph or negative, to which there is more then one answer. When using a specific year that evidence comes from one or more of several sources. In the case of slides those after 1959 are usually date stamped when processed, we also use slide tray liner notes, memos written on the slide, evidence presented by other slides/photos/negatives within the same grouping, logs or journals kept by the original owner and visual evidence presented in the image itself. When the precise year is unknown but the period is clear will use general terms such as 1940s, 1950s, 1960s...etc.
