In 1973 I went to JAPAN for 10 days when it was very difficult to travel there -- I went with a fellow member of Barking Photographic Society to which I belonged at that time -- I took my 1971 bought East German Pentacon Six with some old lenses I had adapted to fit as I wanted to take ' Medium Format' transparencies for an agency to try to get some 'sales' -- well, many years later the agency which took over the original one has sent back ALL my 'slides' as they no longer want 'Hard Copy' images only DIGITAL from Full-Frame cameras -- so I have a few 'Old Slides' to show you -- here are some from my Japan trip-- others have been 'dumped'

Nice window into the past!
How many did you get back?
I love to stumble over old pictures that I haven't seen for a long time. Very Happy

Thanks for viewing - well- I am still getting slides back as the lady in TopFoto Agency finds them -- I have been sent back must be over 300 so far -- I have dumped many-- too faded with age and not interesting to put onto photo 'Forums'
