QE2 Story Box of Slides : June 1976 Slides

[Rob Lightbody]

I have just added a new album to our gallery called QE2 June 1976.  This is 15 slides that were within our box of slides that we acquired a couple of years ago now.

I only just realised I had never uploaded these.

I'm unsure of exactly when or where the slides were taken, but June 1976 is an educated guess.

I don't know the technical details. But, I am blown away by the colour quality of those slides.

I know!  You should have seen my face when they came up on the screen for the first time.

The photographer knew what he was doing.

What is sad, is the amount of slides that end up being binned, because people don't realise that they can deliver results like this.

I keep meaning to put an advert in the various newspapers here asking if anyone else has early QE2 slides.

Fantastic find Rob, and as Rod has said the colour quality is excellent. 

Enjoyed taking time to look at them and so glad you rescued the pictures.

Stuff doing it as an advert - do it as a feature in the Glashow local media with some of these images; it'll get a heck of a lot more attention...

An excellent find! Also just a month before her engine room fire if the date is accurate.
