The first thing I have to say, is these are NOT my photos, however, as they were taken by the late Pa-in-Law, we do now technically own copyright and I am pretty sure he wouldn't complain. I have shared some of them here before but long before we had a proper film section. The cameras used we still own and indeed I still use them, albeit very infrequently, mainly they sit in a glass fronted cabinet in the living room looking pretty.
However, they are a lovely look back at a time gone by, taken by a man who was heavily involved in Athletics administration and ergo travelled the world when it was less common to do so. I scanned the original slides several years ago now, on a very cheap scanner, so quality isn't great, but I do hope to do the entire collection again in the future with better equipment.
1 - Japan 1969 - official car and driver

4 - Verona again, pretty sure there are a few people in here that can identify those cars

5 - Mexico in 1968, street sellers

6 - finally, probably my favourite of those I've uploaded, Sao Paulo, Brazil in 63 from the hotel window. This is one I know I have shared before but I think its worth a reshare. Apparently the hotel still exists and is still a hotel.

Anyway, C&C probably not worth it, the photographer isn't listening, just sharing some photos I have enjoyed
