    These were found in a friend of a friend's house. The adult female is named Peggy Gagne, a common name here, but I'm not sure where they were taken. Some of the envelopes on the negs are dated 1955-1957 and the film all looks like 120 and 620. I grabbed the box because it's an old camera box...but it's the pictures instead of the camera. The box weighs over a pound, so there's a pile in here. I'll go halvsies on the shipping with the winner.

    Thanks Davey. I thought of doing that but figured....nahhh, let Davie do it. Gotta make the moderator work somehow.(LOL) I'm pretty good at "seeing" negs in reverse, but others have a harder time at it.

    Davey should not be working, I'm ill.

    Remember last week we were talking about Shingles ?
    Well guess what came back to bite me on Sunday.
    I've been burning up and hardly able to walk all week, I got it in all the wrong places too.
    Thankfully I'm on the mend, the dog got a decent walk today but I can't ride my bike.

    @daveydempsey - Get thee to a doctor.

    And consume copious amounts of ice cream.

    No cure, the virus is carried for life.
    Ice cream is fattening.

    This is doing no good with Evelyn's giveaway. :D

    @daveydempsey - You're correct - no cure, but there are ways to ease the discomfort...

    I know I was only joking :D

    I'm the stiff upper lip brigade, I was brought up not to show pain, its all in the mind.

    I grin and bear dentistry drilling as I'm allergic to novacaine.

    Although I did enjoy the effects of morphine on 3 seperate serious leg injuries.

    But there is a vaccine. I made sure to get it as soon as I was old enough for my medical plan to cover it. Have heard enough stories of other people's agony. Sneaky little virus, a souvenir of chicken pox.

    Yeah but, :rolleyes:
    If you had read last week, I got the pox when I was around 9 years and should have been immune after that.
    But in my early 30's I got it again, really bad, I was seriously ill., I`ve had shingles every year since.
    I was never informed about the vaccine and did not know about it until recently.
    I'm of the understanding that it is not available in the UK until you are over 70.

    I don't manage to catch all the posts. I feel for you. If your immune system didn't learn the first time you had the pox, I suppose there's some question how effective the vaccine would be. But, given your medical history, the National Health wouldn't allow you to have it rather than have to pay shingles-related expenses? Of course, that would be rational & humane.

    Yeah well, we all know how health insurance handles rational. They give it thorazine until it goes away!

    I guess shingles trumps bits of plastic, eh?
