I have bought and sold hundreds of antique cameras, but never found any film, but for the 110, etc vacation pockets we had as kids. But, I am not surprised, as I find amazing old photography abandoned, and nearly trashed, by families. @tskipper

Wow, thanks for sharing!

[Mek]

Oh. Very cool.

[Trina P Holub]

I would be beside myself if I found that! Wow!

Sorry, WWI photos taken /more/ than 100 years ago?
How? Ah... someone has built a time machine! Excellent!

Or just standard journalistic accuracy and detailed research...:?

I was quite excited today because I found some pictures that I had completely forgotten about on an old CF card (from the days when I thought that a 128mb storage card was cutting edge) from 2007. My little find pales into insignificance now.

@intymalcolm Ha ha, I think they were just rounding down. Didn't it begin 1914? They were close I guess.

[Inty Malcolm]

@newbie Maybe. I put it down to sloppy subbing, myself -- the URL even says 100 yo WW2 photos. NBC, eh? :shakesheadsadly:

[Kathryn]

oh gosh now I'm afraid some pictures from college will somehow turn up

oh well I wasn't planning to run for public office anyway

[Stacey]

@intymalcolm Yes 1914 for ww1, not ww2 (which was the mistake)...

The only "old" photos I've found were of my husband's ex-wife when I grabbed a bunch of undeveloped film from his camera bag after a vacation when we first got together and processed them. I couldn't figure out why he shot a bunch of pictures of some strange woman on the beach. He was mortified when I asked them about them.

Awesome! A few weeks ago I was searching trough my grandmothers box of old photos, I love how those old images look. Now that I'm thinking about it, I should look up my parents photos sometime soon.

@karenpics I'm sorry but this made me LOL. I can't imagine what I would've done..

@l2lumom Made me laugh too at the time.
