I don't post much on here any more, don't really take many photos much anymore.
I was at Goodwill and I found a several boxes of old slides that had been donated. Many many rolls of film (hundreds). All organized and labeled in automatic slide cartridges. The staff had gone through and thrown out 90% of the slides (company policy), so just the cartridges were left for sale. I managed to find one box they missed of a trip to Thailand. For some reason it didn't sit well with me that all of someones trip memories (Paris, Rome, Rhine, Thai, etc.) were tossed out by some Goodwill employees. Here are a couple shots of the Thai trip, I've got 3 more rolls to go through and pick some out.
I just took photos of the slides with my camera. Not sure what I'm going to do with the slides.

I'd be tempted to make a new Flickr account and post them online.
Put in the profile and each pic's description the story of how you found them, tag them as best you can, there are a couple of "found photograph" groups you could add them to.

That's a great idea. To do that though I think I'd need a scanner for the images. Just taking shots with my camera leaves something to be desired in the final product. |

Those are some nice shots. What is the emulsion? Are any of them dated? Whenever I've come across boxes of somebody's old slides (which is too seldom, but it has happend in the past), I try to pick them up whenever possible. I'm like you, I just can't stand the thought of throwing out someone else's documentation of some place at some time in the past. Doesn't matter when or where it was. As the years go by, items like these become more and more treasured. It is tragic, I feel, that Goodwill tosses them.

They say Ektachrome transparency or Kodachrome transparency. Processed by Kodak. No idea on a date, a few of the empty boxes were from 1974-1976 so I assume around that time. If you want the slides you can have them, no idea what I'd do with them. |

Cooltouch, sorry I've been very busy with work and life. I'll see if I can get these out to you Thursday. Finally went through some more of them. Again, just took photos of the slides with my camera. The last one is my favorite by far.
