Other<br /> For the town and district of Hof the area status of the year 2000 applies.<br /> The most recent glass negatives are from 1966, most of them from before 1945.<br /> Clothing and furnishings are mentioned in the depictions of persons (item 4 of the classification) if they deviate from the usual pattern (suit for men, dress for women, uncovered head). In particular, uniforms, traditional costumes, headgear, handbags, walking sticks, umbrellas, toys and special positions and equipment for infants and children are mentioned. <br /> <br /> - Information on the stock history (with literature references):<br /> The stock comes from different provenances: Building authorities and other departments of the city of Hof, various private persons, photographer Otto Müller from Hof, etc. <br /> No. 2792 - 2899 come from Photo Eckart, Hof; they were donated to the town archive in 2004 with all rights by the last business owner, Mr. Schweim. In most cases, the origin of individual negatives can no longer be traced. <br /> No. 2900 - 3000 and from No. 3893 are from Foto Rudolph, Hof. These negatives were purchased with all rights by the city of Hof in 2008. They are to be quoted as "Foto Rudolph, Hof, vormals E. Rudolph Königlich Bayerischer Hofphotograph" according to the purchase contract. <br /> City archivist Dr. Ernst Dietlein put the negatives available at his time into bags, labeled and sorted them. Dietlein's order of the bags was lost over time. In addition, other negatives in various formats that were not classified in Dietlein's order were apparently added later. In the years 1997 to 2000 the stock was newly formed. The glass negatives available at that time were repackaged in acid-free special envelopes, microfilmed and completely indexed. In addition, photocopies, paper prints or 35mm negatives of the microfilmed glass negatives were made in order to facilitate the use of the material.<br /> <br /> - legal relationships (loan contract, blocking periods) and use: <br /> The stock is the property of the City of Hof.<br /> Photos without personal representations and those on which persons are only accidentally present are not subject to a blocking period. The usual blocking periods for personal data apply to photos that depict persons not only by chance (above all under point 4 of the structure): as a rule 10 years after the death of the person depicted, alternatively 90 years after birth. In case of doubt, it is necessary to look at the negatives to estimate the age of the person depicted. As an approximate guideline for the application of the 90-year rule, the following applies to the stock: FG:<br /> "Frau", "Brautpaar": At the time of the photograph, at least 21 years old. <br /> "Soldier": At the time of photography at least 18 years old. <br /> "Lord": At the time of photography at least 14 years old. <br /> "Confirm", "Miss": At the time of photography at least 10 years old. A "Fräulein" here means an unmarried and not widowed female person, the expression can describe a young girl as well as an old woman. <br /> "Schoolchild", "First communicator": At least 6 years old at the time of photography. <br /> "child", "girl", "boy", "infant", "family", "group", "wedding party", "club": At the time of photography at least 0 years old. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This means, for example, that in 2014 all photos of persons up to 1923 and also photos of adults taken up to 1943 are free for use. For older photos of children, the above rules apply in individual cases. Younger person photos are still blocked, if the date of birth or death is not known and the usability can be calculated from it. The following rule applies to photographs of persons with the time indication "without date": <br /> If they originate from Foto Rudolph, they must have been taken in 1952 or before. <br /> Glass negatives of other origin are only known to have been produced in 1966 or earlier. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> To calculate the blocking period in these cases, you have to have the year 1952 or 1952, respectively, as a precaution. 1966. <br /> As the takeover of Foto Rudolph comprises approximately 60,000 negatives, it will take many years before it is completely recorded. So long the handwritten directories of Foto Rudolph can and must be used for the search for all negatives, which are not yet registered in the EDP distortion. Some still locked pictures of Eastern workers are not mentioned in the public finding aid (FGPubl), although they are already listed in the official finding aid (FG). <br /> The original stock FG should not be used if possible, as glass negatives are naturally very sensitive. For the first orientation of the user copies or contact prints or 35mm negatives of the filmed glass negatives are available (in file folders with the inventory). The <br /> microfilms or microfiches of the glass negatives, which can be handed in at the photo trade, should be used for the production of photos. The microfilms should be delivered as a whole, i.e. not cut into strips as usual. Glass negatives can be found on the following microforms: <br /> FG 1 - FG 700: MIK 2581 (microfilm; not to be submitted)<br /> FG 1 - FG 700: MIK 2582 (microfilm 35mm; for use)<br /> FG 701 - FG 1138: MIK 2583 (microfilm 35mm; not to be supplied)<br /> FG 701 - FG 1138: MIK 2584 (microfilm 35mm; for use)<br /> FG 1139 - FG 1830: MIK 2585 (microfilm 35mm; not to be submitted)<br /> FG 1139 - FG 1830: MIK 2586 (microfilm 35mm; for use)<br /> FG 1831 - FG 2508: MIK 2587 (microfilm 35mm; not to be submitted)<br /> FG 1831 - FG 2508: MIK 2588 (microfilm 35mm; for use)<br /> FG 2509 - FG 2787: MIK 2819 (microfiches; 2 sets of which 1. Set for use, <br /> 2. Kit for the production of new fiches)<br /> FG 3001 - FG 3387: MIK 2589 (microfiches; not to be submitted)<br /> FG 3001 - FG 3387: MIK 2590 (microfiches; for use)<br /> FG 3388 - FG 3892: MIK 2591 (microfilm 35mm; not to be submitted)<br /> FG 3388 - FG 3892: MIK 2592 (microfilm 35mm; for use)<br /> FG 2788 - FG 3000 and the numbers from FG 3893 have not yet been filmed. The glass negatives that have not yet been filmed may be used for the production of scans and prints. The fee statutes of the Hof City Archives apply. <br /> In 2013, scans were started with a resolution of 1200 dpi. The aim is to scan all glass negatives. The existing scans are stored on a separate drive path "FG". <br /> <br /> Subsequent numbers of already recorded glass negatives could not be scanned due to oversize: FG 2787, FG 14970 - 14999, FG 15001 - 15104.<br /> <br /> - Editors of the inventory (with details of the processing period):<br /> Dr. Kluge, 1999-2000 (first distortion), from 2008 various editors
