Description: In the Spring of 1995, Thomas L. Gravell and the University of Delaware Library agreed to participate with Daniel Mosser and Ernest W. Sullivan, II to make The Thomas L. Gravell Watermark Collection of photographic reproductions of over 7,000 watermarks in paper made between 1400 and 1835 available as a searchable online electronic database on the Internet, with the Experimental Bulletin Board System, hosted by the English department at Virginia Tech, as the Internet server, with Len Hatfield providing technical and design support. Thomas Gravell made his original photographic reproductions of the watermarks with the photographic process he developed employing Du Pont DYLUX® 503 photosensitive paper. Far archival purposes, Thomas Gravell rephotographed his original images as slides that are held at the University of Delaware Library, as are the notecards on which Thomas Gravell recorded information identifying the watermarks.

Description: As of May 2022, the Gravell Archive has become a constituent of the Bernstein Consortium’s Memory of Paper Portal of online watermark collections, under the oversight of Emanuel Wenger. The primary reason for this migration stems from a problem that occurred when the project migrated servers in March 2014. At that time, the connection between the local FilemakerPro database and the MySQL database on the server was severed, and despite much effort, we were never able to re-establish the connection. A secondary reason is that Mosser and Sullivan are retired. Prior to the technical issue described above, we were able to incorporate 2933 records collected by Tom Gravell and 5547 edited records of the unpublished tracings of Briquet, along with a handful of other records.
