Magnum Photos

Archive - Vintage Color From the NY Archive 

Magnum Photographers 

In 2007 Magnum New York's archive staff worked on a project involving the removal of the eldest original chromes from its main files, the goal being to transfer these slides to the archival cold-room.
During this process edits of these beautifully preserved Kodachrome originals were made. Here is a selection of these images.
