GLOVERSVILLE - Local history enthusiasts are slowly restoring about
1,200 antique glass-slide photographs that have been in storage for
decades in Fulton County museums and archives. The images show a
variety of local places, people and events that date from the late
1800s and early 1900s.

"We have had these glass negatives in boxes forever and never really
did anything with them," said Noel Levee, Johnstown city historian and
president of the Johnstown Historical Society. "A lot of these
buildings and people haven't been seen before, so it is great for
these things to finally be put out for people to view."
