I'm trying to track down some Southern freight car photos. Does anyone know
Charles Winters and how to contact him. Is he still selling photos?

Alas, Charlie Winters died several years ago. It's my understanding
that his collection of freight car photos (most taken by George Sisk)
went to Harold Vollrath. The e-mail address I have for Harold is
<hkvollrath@...>.

Actually this collection went to a well known collector of diesel photos whose name escapes me. However Jay Williams has been "renting" the freight negatives and has been selling prints for a couple of years now.

I would still contact Mr. Vollrath, as he has some freight car photos of his own.

The collection went to Louis Marre.

The Winters/Sisk Collection went to Louis Marre in Ft. Smith, Ark.I don't have an address nor do I know if he sells prints.

Richard:

Is there a more complete e-mail address for Harold Vollrath?

The Charles Winters collection, especially its freight cars taken by George Sisk, was acquired after Charles' passing by Dr. Louis Marre of Dayton, Ohio. Knowing how bad we want prints but unable to rpint enough, Dr. Marre rents it to Jay Williams of Indianapolis, Ind. for printing, table sales, and mail order.

Google "Jay Williams Big Four Graphics" for contact information.

Thanks Gentlemen, I have already contacted Jay and will also contact Mr.
Vollrath. Thanks for the response.

Be aware that Mr. Vollrath and Mr. Winters knew each other well and traded many images, it was Mr. Vollrath who came away with copy negatives. This is fine if such copy negatives are the only source, inferior if the originals are available, in this case from Jay Williams.

Thanks Jim, Lots to keep in mind here.
