About Barry Benjamin
Expertise
I can answer basic questions about using any camera, but I am very familiar with most of
the Nikon FILM cameras up to the FP 5. I have some background in advertising and
marketing so I know something about placement of the object or person that would be
the main focus of the photo. I did quite a bit of in home family portrature when I had my
own studio in the '80s and '90s. I also did some product and commercial photography. I
took most of the marketing photos for my families hotels in The Bahamas over the last 20
years so I have some experience about what 'sells' in the travel/hospitality industry.
Experience
Started photography in 1967, also worked as a newspaper printer in Molina, Oregon in 1975, I owned my own studio from 1982 to 1996 and sold my travel images as stock since then.

Question
I was given a box of old photos of celebrities @ movie premiers in N.Y.C., a whole variety of movie stars, which includes , actual photos of Marilyn Monroe and other such big stars in their hayday. How can I find out their worth? They were unfortunately just thrown in this box, some edges are curled...etc.Can you give me some idea on who to see about them to find out their true worth?
Thank you,
Janice
Answer
Janice:
I am sorry my answer has been delayed.
I would look on ebay for what other people are getting for similar items.
I assume that none of the photos are signed either by the person in the photo or the photographer that took the photo. If by chance there are any signatures, that photo has much more value.
I am sorry I cannot give you anymore specific information.
Good Luck!
Barry
