Daniel,

That was my first year with the Leica, while I was still in the USAF, and I 
had no darkroom.  I suspect it was done by Salem Camera Shop in Dayton, OH, 
where I was stationed.  It does look kind of grainy, but it was also an 
early scan of a negative that had been in a cigar box for over 50 years.
