Days of our lives

[coopernatural]

All,

Have uploaded an AV to mediafire ‘Days of our lives’.

http://www.mediafire.com/?mjyvjrzejzu

A nostalgic look back to childhood days of old. No computer games, or Ipods then.

You could make do with a ball, a rope, or just a good imagination.

Best days though would be when you got to the beach. Sun, sea, sand and ice cream.

Images are from the US, dating from the 1900s – 1940s.It comes with a 'Bash this AV' title,

so feel free.

great collection - amazing quality -- only guessing but most from old Kodak box camera and 620 film

Ken,

Most pics are from 8x10 dry plate glass negatives.some 5x7 negatives.

On the 'Iron Horses' AV there is a pic of 2 guys carrying a monster camera to the left of a train.

They are on a steep ledge.The plate negatives are something like 16x22 !

Cheers,

Davy

I had a Kodak box camera using 620 film, those were the days, but never got shots like these. Even if ihsd the 8 x 10 or a 7 x 5 I still would not have got such good shots. Great presentation.

Hi Mickp,

I might struggle with a digital camera up against some of these pics.

The earliest photos would be from around the time of the death of Queen Victoria.

2 years before the first successful flight of the Wright Brothers.

Thanks for watching and commenting.

Hi Davy,

Another of your brilliantly evocative shows. Superb! Loved the sequence of clock and rollercoaster.

Hi David,

Thanks for viewing and your comments.

I kept things simple with the Clock/Roller coaster.

Glad you liked it.
