The Negative Collection

[edit | edit source]

Salacuse hunts for discarded film negatives at flea markets, collecting the negatives for vintage images to print and sell.[11] Many of these negatives have yielded unseen photographs of celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio, Frank Sinatra, and Muhammad Ali.[12] Salacuse admits that he does not own the copyright to these lost negatives, but maintains a standing offer to return the negatives (and any money received from sales) should the owner come forward.[13] To date, only the photographer for the Leonardo DiCaprio photos has requested to have their negatives returned.[14]
