The " Snowflake" Bentley Collection |
The Buffalo Museum of Science houses the world’s largest collection of original Wilson A. Bentley glass plate negatives. A partnership between the Museum and the Jericho Historical Society has been formed to preserve the Bentley collections of both organizations. This collaboration will allow for the archival printing of Bentley negatives and the issuing of prints to raise funds for future preservation of the
Museums’s fragile and important collection.
