Archive of 1960s San Francisco found ...

That is amazing. Hopefully they can find out who the photographer was

 

Roaring-Sounds amazing and I'd love to see it,but weirdly-nothing shows up in your post for me but Sabre stating 'That is amazing....' then it just cuts off.
Did you pull it or... ?

My suggestion is to try this ...

Strange things are happening in these times as well.

 

Sorry Roar-I thought you'd posted jpg's of an archive you'd personally discovered.
I went to the Smithsonian Website and found the YouTube vid and slideshow-amazing (now I gotta look for me in those images !).
Someone posited the photographer & film maker Agnes Varda could have taken the photos.
What a treasure & thanks for posting it !
PS-Supposed image of the mystery artist-

 

What an eye for color and composition. Impressive. I spent a lot of $$$’s developing film back in the day and probably got about 2 pics per roll of film I like . Lost all but a scarce few in a fire back in 1991. *grunts*

 

I got the video window an' just clicked inna center of it for the full story...Thanks!

 

The link was viewable for me. I was in diapers when some of those were taken, so..not guilty.(LOL) Even if I was that good(hah!). Whoever took those was a master photographer, male or female.

 

Wow. Thanks for posting this. As a lifetime amateur photographer, (the person that always had the camera), this is exciting!
