> More from the "Motherlode," the boxes of Kodachrome slides taken by my Mom between 1949 and the 1980s.  In the summer of 1949, my Mom and her friend Sue took a train excursion from NYC to the west coast, going through New Mexico, the Grand Canyon, San Francisco and Los Angeles.  Mom did not have a 35mm camera at the time--she took her father's old folding camera with leather bellows. The people on the trip had various cameras, including folders, a TLR and 35mm camera.  They all exchanged photos, so I have pictures from many people. I believe the 35mm "Kodachrome Duplicate" slides were taken by a woman named Betty.  I believe that these 35mm photos were what inspired my mother to take up 35mm herself when she returned to New York. She bought her Bolsey B2 shortly thereafter.
