My Mexican suitcase

If you are a Robert Capa fan – like me, then you know about the famous Mexican Suitcase that was found so many years after his death full with newer before seen negatives. Well, I just had my own Mexican Suitcase found in the form of 2 small AgfaColor boxes full with colour slides made sometime in 1969-70 by a professional photographer friend  of our family back in Hungary.

40 years was not gentle to the 48 slides and I’m very glad that I still have my Nikon film scanner to process them.

Here is an example of a restored image:

Sorry but the rest of the images are not public – they were loaded to my private photo gallery.

I think I got a few extra cookie points from my mom for this.
