Exeter History Minute - Glass Plate Negatives

Much like listening to the music of our formative years, looking at old photos has a way of transporting us back through time, even if the period in question was long before we were born. In this episode, Barbara shares the Peter Smith glass plate negative collection from the turn of the 20th century and explains some of what we can learn from the images about life in Exeter c. 1903. This Exeter History Minute is made possible by a grant from the Dan Brown Charitable Fund.
