When Charlie left Vietnam in May 1969, he managed to hustle his negatives home to the States with him (but that is another story for a future blog post).
Some negatives, however, never made it.
Along the way during Charlie’s 13 months in country, some negatives were lost. Some were sent to magazines for print, only to be never returned. And some negatives, we just don’t know the fate of.
Within the boxes and boxes of Vietnam leftovers Charlie has at his house here in Portland are stacks of contact prints, like these two. Where are the negatives for these shots? It’s impossible to say, but we certainly hope they turn up some day
