I believe it is the Bessa 6x9. I have heard that it has been left to
me, and knowing my MIL I'm sure it is mint, if not periodically c&a.
Well, maybe not the latter. I also have a Kodak 120 folder that my dad
brought back from Germany in WWII. As I recall, it is marked "Wetzlar"
but I will have to pull it down and see. I shot many rolls of 120 with
it as a little kid. I would take the film to our local drugstore to be
developed...enough, I'm starting to feel old. The more I scan, the more
I love digital cameras.

There are thousands of frames. She used a Contessa 35 and a Voigtlander 6x9, that she still has. I'm not sure what some of the b&w film is, but the slides are all Kodachrome. Here is my wife, Susan, in her girl scout uniform at their apartment in Verona (1954).
