How about a thread where you can post photos you didn't take but found, either as prints or negatives?

I just scanned about 30 negatives from a bunch my mom found in a house of a distant-non-relation who passed away. They are mostly medium format but I think interesting enough that you might want to see them.

Any found negatives you'd like to post?

I recently stumbled upon a number of negatives of my parents taken shortly after they were married.

sorry! I didn't realize that there was already a thread here. Ignore this one.

Fantastic stuff, Paul. Pretty clearly some of them fall outside the 1910-1917 range, though -- most of them fit that description, but there are some that appear to be from as late as the 30s as well.
