third party image

OK, I found another slide (after going through hundreds) of the tractor and truck. This clearly shows the Farmall is an H, and not an M as some thought. Unfortunately it does not help with the mystery truck which is even less visible in this photo.

We now also know the picture was taken in the summer of 1948. That is my wife there, and she is now just as cute but 60 years old.

Not sure what walpaper is, but ok to use on your computer. Would prefer it not be sent elsewhere.

By the way, she is 60 now but I think just as cute.

 yes, Kodachrome but... in reply to randy in Pa, 04-30-2005 15:45:20  
Kodachrome is a great product. I did touch up the color a bit in Photoshop so it looked better on the screen, but it was very good as is.

How did you scan it? I"ve got a lot of old slides and have been looking into getting them done comercially, but am scared of them getting lost in shipping or the "Oop"s we"re sorry we ruined your slides" from some vendors minimum wage help. I"m in S.E. MI.

 how to scan slides in reply to IanC, 05-01-2005 09:23:59  
You need to get a special kind of scanner to do slides, negatives and other transparencies. I use an Epson 3200 Photo scanner. This does slides, color negs, B&W negs, magazine pages, photos etc. You can also buy scanners built just for 35 mm slides and negs, these will do a slightly better job than the Epson 3200 but don't have the flexibility to do 2 1/4 negs or 4.5 X6 cm etc.

The Epson 3200 does a good enough job on the 35mm to allow good 8X12 prints to be made. I also have a Canon i9900 printer which makes the best color prints I have ever seen...as good as an excellent photographic process. And being a old dark room guy, I am pretty fussy about this.

Both the scanner and the printer are in the $400-500 range.

I run all this with a Mac G-4 using Photoshop 7 but it could be run on a PC also. You do need something pretty fast because scanned slides need to be enlarged to be useful, and those files can get huge.

Contact me direct at GWellman@centurytel.net if you wish.
