Description

Each image is an original, “one-off” image, mounted in a 2″ x 2″ plastic or cardboard slide mount.
As these are originals, they are only images like this in existence. By buying these items, you are purchasing all rights to these images. They are yours to do with whatever you wish.
These original, vintage images, some now over 60 years old, were created by photographers of unknown and diverse abilities; using what is now considered to be vintage, or even antique, film, lenses and equipment. Many images were taken in low light conditions, and/or are of fast moving objects.
I do not significantly alter the scanned images. If the scan appears blurred or dark – that is the actual condition of the image. I will only list a poorly exposed or unfocused image if it is rare or  historically significant.
It should be noted that I ‘batch-scan’ 12 images at the same time with an ‘Epson 750 Pro’ scanner – which, in spite of it’s name, is NOT a professional-grade scanner. This method does not allow for individual focus and exposure correction.
Any competent commercial or professional photo lab can scan, adjust and print much higher quality
images
than you see here.
Actual image may be larger than scan; which may have been enlarged to show detail, or cropped to align horizons. Minor color correction may also have been applied.
These slides were only lightly air-cleaned with “Dust-Off” before scanning. Although they are adult owned and cared for, ( i.e. – handled with respect!) they may have (easily removable) minor marks or scratches not apparent in this scan.
Please examine the high-resolution scan carefully before bidding or buying; as there are no returns on these duplicable items.
Items will ship in a protective slide page in a new ‘Stay Flat’ envelope.
I will happily combine shipping of items of similar weight  – in most cases for no additional cost!
Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have.
