Summary

[edit]
Description

Thanks to Clanger and Standel for identifying this photo as the London Zoo. Please see their comments below for more information.

American's vacation in England in the 1930s preserved on 25 rolls of black and white negative 35mm film (about 600 photos). Each film roll was marked with a location name. Example: Photo 6-010 is film roll 6 (Blewbury), the 10th photo on the film. The photos were probably all taken within two weeks of each other. I am not familiar with any of these locations. Here is a list of the film rolls that were uploaded and how they were labeled:

roll 0 Leaving New York on the Queen Mary roll 1 Salisbury roll 2 Marsh's Home, Penquins, zoo roll 3 Windsor roll 4 Wisley Garden roll 5 photos of snowflakes, not uploaded roll 6 Blewbury roll 7 Hagbourne roll 8 Compton Cottage roll 9 Shere roll 10 Witley, Thursley roll 11 Windmill roll 12 Corfe #1 roll 13 Corfe #2 roll 14 Corfe #3 roll 15 Corfe Village Winchester roll 16 Winchester Saint Cross London roll 17 Greywell Upton Grey Thames roll 18 Thames Wanborough Tilford roll 19 Tilford Elstead Burton Aldsworth roll 20 Bibury Arelington Row roll 21 Cirencester, Hendred, EW, Arebury, Silbury Hill, Castle Combe roll 22 Castle Combe, Lacock, Bradford-on-Avon roll 23 film roll missing, Bradford, Stonehenge roll 24 Dogs only, not uploaded

35mm black and white negative film roll scaned at 1200 dpi. film type: SS PANCHRO NITRATE FILM and Kodak Nitrate Film Panchromatic.

I hope that some of these photos are of historic value to someone and not just a bunch of tourist pictures.
