National Archive to receive valuable photography collection

The Czech National Archive will on Wednesday take possession of a valuable collection documenting 20th century photography in the then Czechoslovakia. The archive of photographer of the late Alexandr Paul, who co-founded the Press Photo Service in 1931, contains black and white and colour negatives, slides of various formats, photographs and other archival materials. They capture cultural events, architecture, street scenes, sport and various other areas of life.
