Photographers have been drawn to animal subjects since the invention of cameras with dogs being number one in my opinion. Searching through estate lots of amateur slides, I find just as many dog photos as I do ones of babies. These photos are all from the 1960s. Photographers unknown.

I love this Kodachrome because this photo captures something that probably doesn't exist anymore. A street vendor selling slides.  These sets contained professionally photographed pictures of all the famous places you would be most likely to visit on your vacation. The picture below is a set that the vendor most likely had for sale. Some of the photos in this set included these gems. Check out these amateur kodachromes of Rome . I think these are better than the professional ones.

I just love this photo. It is what I do several times a day. I own several different slide and photo viewers but my aging eyes seem to work best with holding them up to a light source with a magnifying glass. I don't know the location of this shot but I'm going to guess Italy. if you recognize the building, I would love to know what it is.
