How cool is this?
Right now I have photo negatives in my house of Bob Hope! Nine rolls of film shot in 1975 when he was in Washington DC. They include him testifying before congress for something, rehearsing a show, and visiting injured soldiers at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Can't wait to get into the darkroom with those!!

I haf my vays...

Daddy just got back from Washington DC with piles of stuff from his sister Betty's apartment. Her husband Roddey had been a photographer on contract to Time magazine for years, and he was mainly a White House/political photographer.
Lots of stuff from Air Force One. Some pictures and a Christmas card from his friend Jayne Mansfield. You know, the usual stuff you find in a relatives apartment.

What, you didn't get the Elvis negatives to play with too?

Oooh, negatives too? I did get to see the Elvis color slides! I suppose it only makes sense that he would have shot B&W negs at the same time since he always had at least 2 cameras around his neck at all times, if not more!
The zebra skin was kind of neat too!
