A trove of undeveloped film from the late 60s

Amazingly good photos. Photographer unknown.

The photographer had to have been published in newspapers or magazines. The work is outstanding. Crazy story.

Wow, what a find that was.
And they still managed to get images out of them. It means that they were still kept in decent conditions all that time.

For those like me who can't see it on Youtube (they country-blocked the video), you can still see it on the CBS News website

It's clearly a very decent photographer who did these, let's hope they can find the person. I wonder how they will process those Kodachrome rolls now.

If you want to change your photographs, you need to change cameras.
