I've recently been scanning old negatives shot in Memphis in the 60s to post 
on Smugmug for friends to view.  Anyone interested can see them at 
http://pswango.smugmug.com/gallery/805417

I thought the sign in the last picture was interesting: family portrait for 
35 cents!

For blues fans, the guy playing the guitar is Rev. Robert Wilkins, whose 
recording of "Prodigal Son" was covered by the Rolling Stones.

I'll be posting more as I get them scanned.  All are M-Leica/Summicron on 
Eastman 2475 recording film, D-76.  They're really grainy but it doesn't 
look too bad in these small web images.
