Sorry, No Pictures

As I feared, the disc that I found in my grandparents' old disc camera contained no images. I received the film a few days ago and it was pretty badly fogged, but even so, I didn't see any traces of an image whatsoever. I was really hoping for something spectacular, though it's very likely the camera was never used. Most likely, they received the camera as a gift and never used it. Like the VCR that we gave them or the answering machine.....

And lastly, the hot rod photos......

More photos from the archives, as previously mentioned - this time, we have the work related travel photos.

Archives, Part 1

A while ago, a good friend of mine found a box of transparencies in a thrift store in Grand Rapids. The box was a treasure chest containing 50's and 60's era photos that seemed to all be related to one Detroit based automotive company.

The photographs are all of a few types - from testing and lab setup shots to work related travel shots. Some hot rod photos too. First up - company headquarters and the lab and testing photos.

One More....

Found

I probably have a greater than average fondness for found photos, snapshots, crappy family album photos, whatever you want to call them. I especially like vernacular photography without people. I found these at an antique store in Chicago this past weekend. I'm fairly certain they are from the same photographer, and probably the same camera.

I like the way the photographer uses the square in these. I wouldn't be disappointed if any one of these photos were mine........
