The nitrate negatives of the so-called "Italian Museums Photographs" were presented by the Petrie Museum of Archaeology in 1985, along with the "Giza photographs" (see Petrie MSS 4.1). Modern 35mm negatives were created from the nitrate negatives and the nitrate negatives were subsequently deaccessioned.
