> 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).
