Notes on print - 'BETSANG Plain + Nyenchen Thangla' is written on the reverse of print on a yellow post-it in blue ink (not Richardson's hand) and 'Mid Western part of range' in black ink in Richardson's hand. [KC 18/4/2006]
Manual Catalogues - Notes on negative index - Folio 91. 'Betsang & Nyenchen Thanglha'
Manual Catalogues - Richardson's handlist 'Album no.2' [nos.] '59-61. 'The Be tsang plain, yak grazing ground'.
Other Information - Dates: This image can be related to a group of 13 images which have contact prints with the batch development number '512 taken on, before or just after the Talung tour in May 1939. This batch number relates also to the 512 Black for 21 6x9 images suggesting that by this time Richardson was using two cameras and that the batch numbers can also correlate with each other across print sizes [MS 17/12/2005]
