Greetings Aaron, I am writing you from Boston where I have been working for the past three years on an independent documentary on the (willfully forgotten) Philippine-American War and happened upon your recent scan of the infamous Bud Dajo/Mount Dajo massacre image. While I had already acquired this image from the National Archives in DC, the copy you located in Rochester appears to have somewhat more of the image's deeply grim detail. I'm therefore wondering if there is a way that you, or the Rochester Museum and Science Center, might be able to provide me with a higher resolution scan (300dpi). Happy to discuss this further and thanks.
I apologies first of all for the lateness of my reply, I have not checked my livejournal in quite a while and have been in Alaska on an internship, so imagine my surprise when I found your reply today. The person you would need to get in touch with is Kathryn Murano who is the collections manager at the Rochester Museum and science center. Her E-mail there is Kathryn_Murano@rmsc.org. Good luck to you and good luck with your documentary. It was truly a shocking thing to find as i was sorting a collection of world war 1 era photographs of camp life. If you need to contact me, my e-mail is ap.rath@gmail.com good luck again and have a good day.
