Check out these pics for their detail and color, just amazing that they have survived! The resolution is probably because they were shot w/large format film. Sad that Kodak has fallen on hard times. Ironically, they invented digital photography. The company's chief worth now is in its patents. They have beed selling-off pieces of the company faster than an addict consumes his stash.

If you are a student of WW II, these will prove to be very interesting. On my way home from Daytona Bike Week, I stopped at my favorite used bookstore which because it's on the "Space Coast," has lots of military books. I got a couple volumes of the history of submarine warfare in WW II, very interesting. Another purchase was The Encyclopedia of Motor Sport, Viking Press (1971) which is like crack for me, as it has an exhaustive listing of the history of organized motor sports, manufacturers, teams, and drivers going back to the birth of the auto industry. Any book with a forward by Stirling Moss has to be worthwhile, for me.
