35mm Slides

At home I have a heap of 35mm slides which Dad took from about 1960 to 1979. I plan to scan these in, and publish one here every day or so. The slides were stored in the shed for a while, and so some are not in good shape. Some are also dirty.

The pictures are in a small format as you see them here without them taking a long time to load. They can be made larger if you click on them. Use the back-button to go back to this page.
