Reply to LPT Request: Any idea how to separate a photo that is fused with the glass on its frame? by Dwestmor1007
Google has an app called Photoscan. It takes several pictures of a photo then stitches them together removing glare and compensates for the phone being at an angle.
It does a really good job of digitizing old photos. Take a few pictures of it with this app before you try anything.
It is available on Android and ios.

By your definition nothing in the universe is scarce.
That said I think these are great for a couple bucks, they are also a great way to get rid of old prints. They made thousands of these prints and only need to save a handful for history. Cutting them up and selling them is brilliant.

> Since movie reels weren't exactly mass-produced endlessly, there is scarcity. Therefore, this product has value.
Toy Story is 81 minutes or 4,860 seconds long. Each second of movie is 24 frames so each print of Toy Story has 116,640 frames. This piece is 5 frames, so each print can make 23,328 if these.
I might be able to find out how many prints of Toy Story were made, but I can't be bothered, I am guessing around 7,000.
A rough estimate, this is a one of 163,296,000. Not that rare.

A local dude bought a brand new Ford Bronco in 1966 and put a plow on it. He kept it in his hanger at the airport and only used to to push snow away from the doors of his hanger.
It is still in their hanger.
It has never seen salt, it has rarely gotten wet, it has something like 2500 miles on it, it was started up and moved around the hanger often enough that everything hasn't dried out and rotted and looks exactly like it did when it came off the dealer's lot in 1966.
