Searching for: Press Photographer Joe Waldorf

By Will Carleton April 7, 2023 Will Carleton

We have had another request for the whereabouts of Joe or his image library – Joe will probably be in his 90’s now.
Here’s the first time we asked back in 2013 with some info.

If you have anything please email [email protected]

Why is it important?

At the turn of the 20th century, there was vast growth in press agencies and photographers due to the massive thirst for images in newspapers. Many are still in existence but others have been sold, absorbed or simply disappeared, effectively leaving gaps in the history of this industry… many agency offices were bombed during the WWII London Blitz resulting negative and print files being water damage from the hoses quenching the fires …most archives were in the building basements.
