I bought a small box of slides while in north Georgia in an estate/antique shop for $1.
19 slides total, 3 different types of film, all seemingly of the same plant. The only thing on the box besides the price is "Plant 59"
I've deducted from the slides that this is all from Republic Engine Corp. I'm assuming, from the box that they were all shot in 1959. And that the day the photographer came to shoot, one of the bosses brought his kids to work. Not much has come from google searches on the plant thus far.
One thing that's really interesting to me is how the different films have survived over the past 60 years. In the box are 10 Ektachrome, 8 Anscochrome, and 1 Kodachrome. To the eye the Kodachrome seems to be the least scratched and faded, where as the Anscochrome is the most scratched and faded over time. Ektachrome sits right in the middle.
It goes to show, you should shoot at least decent film if you want it to last 60 years or more.
another step closer to being finished. it needs a valve adjustment and the thermostat and we're actually done!
