[Leica] Family Kodachromes, 1956-57

[Richard Clompus]

Peter, nice memories.  I especially enjoyed the 20/400 E from your eye exam.  You shot into the mirror mounted on the front wall to make the 10 foot room equivalent to a 20 foot room for vision testing.

Be well,
Richard

Here's a dozen from 1956-57. Life in the 50s, when Eisenhower was President, what was good for General Motors was purportedly good for America, hardly anyone rocked the boat, and I was a cute little toddler.
