This was lost for about 6 years. Just found it yesterday. I scanned it right away. It could get lost again instantly. I've done it before. It all depends on shelving.

Maypole dance 1991 Westminster Abbey, England DDTJRAC When I was a kid, I always looked forward to May. The first season's apricots were soon to come to market. Then the plums and peaches would appear in early summer. Back in the day our fruit came in seasons and were not imported year-round. The fruit had fragrance and taste. Not like the rubber stone fruit we got now. My favorite market for fruit was Hughes in L.A. They had a great produce dept. Ralphs eventually took them over. The cheapest fruit was at Grand Central Market downtown, L.A. Bananas were about .19 cents a pound. The bananas we had back then were different than the ones we got now. That variety died off from some disease. The variety of bananas we got now is also under fire from a disease and is predicted to eventually be gone. You check it all out. The old bananas were pretty tasty. The ones we got now are pretty bland compared to the old variety. You got some land...plant some fruit trees. If you are on the West Coast, plant some figs. Make use of your warm climate. I miss my figs trees. I grew up with white figs and Black Mission figs in L.A. Actually, you can plant figs in cold climates. But you can't grow them as a fig tree; you have to grow them as a fig bush. In winter you cut the fig canes back to a foot tall and have to winterize it. You check it all out. Lots of other things to grow besides figs; you can grow peaches, Asian pears, apples, plums and apricots. But check out your zone requirements and pollination needs before buying them. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.

Around 2009 I had bought a bunch of PAL DVD’s from Amazon, England. This was one of the sets. Just getting around to watching it now. I had to buy a PAL player to see it, but I have about 60 other PAL DVD’s to watch, so it was worth it. I found out it is on YT, so you don’t need a PAL player! (1086) Tales From The Green Valley Series - YouTube Very interesting series about life in the 1600s. Lots of growing food related things in it. I also got Edwardian & Victorian Farm to watch. I’m very slow with things. I got many hundred DVDs and Blu-ray in line to watch, so there is that. I get most of them from the library for free. But some of them I can’t get and have to buy. Green Valley life looks like it was very relaxing way to live back then. But maybe not. I guess you would just have to try it. Lots of tradeoffs…no washing machine, no toothpaste, no shower. Has England made any more historical DVD sets like this that you can recommended? <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.

I found this while cleaning out my mom's garden shed after she died in 2010. I must have forgotten it at her house when I moved out. The shed was pretty old and rickety and leaked. Consequently, the magazine got mold damage and stunk pretty bad. I was going to trash it, but it had sentimental value to me. It was the oldest surviving photo mag I had bought since getting into photography in 1969. I recall buying it on one of the families regular Friday night food shopping trips. I think it was either a Ralph's or Von's near National and Overland in L.A. When the family went shopping, I would head for the magazine rack and read everything I could on photography. This mag impressed me with all the portfolios of the photographers of the day, so I bought it. But usually, I would just read magazines at newsstands and get books from the library to save my $ for film and chemicals. I had wrapped it in 4 layers of plastic sleeving and kept it that way until last week. (You could still smell the mold with 2 or 3 sleeves.) A couple weeks ago I started to give it some microwave radiation to prepare it for scanning. After 6 microwave treatments it still stunk, but it was doable to handle for scanning. I didn't need it perfect; I just wanted to scan and trash. No telling how much microwaving it would need to make it perfect. It tells you; you don't tell it when it is ready. But eventually the microwave wins if you got the patience. And you can't rush it, or you scorch the paper. Here you go... Popular Photography Annual 1972 D. D. Teoli Jr. A. C. : D. D. Teoli Jr. A.

Vaccumate was one of those film preservation treatments they did back in the day along with Vaporate. This sample of a Vaccumate treated film is marked with a 3. Maybe they had different versions. It is all just guess work. I could not find out anything about either treatment. Although you can't see it in the scan, the Vaporate film did seem to have a matte finish applied to the stock. I did not see any difference to Vacuumate treated film versus untreated film. <><><><> Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Archival Collection Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Small Gauge Film Archive Daniel D.

I'm not a HAM, nor interested in getting a license or being a HAM. But it would be interesting to listen in on HAMS. Do they make a HAM scanner? And if so, is it easy to use? I've got a huge collection of HAM material as part of my Radio, Record, Recorder and TV Archive. So that is where my interest stems from. If you're a HAM...you know what these are...have tons of them! I've got a huge TV and radio archive. All fascinating stuff, all visuals more or less. (I don't like text much.) But I have no interest in the technical end of things. I only like visuals and easy to listen to scanners. Problem with scanning nowadays is they encrypt the conversations in the big city. Luckily for me I don't live in the big city any longer, so I get pretty good scanning material. Uniden needs to make an encryption breaker. But greedy Uniden would charge a fortune for it! Weegee was into police scanning, but he did it for his job. Back in the day we had cheap scanners that let you listen in on the cell phones and new cordless telephones. Crazy stuff you would hear. Guess scanner people are voyeurs of sorts. If Perry had an interest in radios... You've got to be of a certain nature to be a HAM. I like the photos only, not the gear and the education you need to run the gear. But the new scanners they have now can be more or less preprogrammed. All you do is enter your zip or GPS info. And if you want a little more, you send $50 to Uniden to 'unlock' certain features. For zip code programming, you just get the basics, but that is good enough for me.

Every January I back up the low-res archive to M-Disc. I have years of screenshots and photos I've saved from the internet that need filing and stumbled upon these today. Don't know if I will get them all filed, I never do, as they number into the many thousands of files that need organizing...but I'm trying to make a dent. Both of these examples are from the eBay archive. Before I had screen recorder software, I'd just save the photos and not have the listing info on eBay. This was way before eBay changed their photos to troublesome WEBP files and you could still download JPEGs. Picnic with Queen Victoria eBay Tons of great stuff for sale in the UK.

Whenever I would drive around the rural parts of MN, IL, OH & PA. I would always be fascinated with grain bins, silos, bailed hay and farms I'd see. I guess that is what spurred my interest in archiving AG material. But going back further, I developed an interest in gardening from watching Roger Swain on 'The Victory Garden' back in the 1980's. DDTJRAC Personally, I don't have much interest in gardening. Sure, I like to look at them, watch them on TV and all, but I don't want to have one unless someone else took care of it. Years ago, I tried some small gardens, container gardening and even guerrilla gardening. But to do gardening right you have to be a slave to the garden. And none of my guerilla gardening efforts every grew. You have to be of the right disposition to be a gardener. Same way you have to be of a certain disposition to be a good filmmaker...director...producer...casting agent and all the rest. Before WWII, they had victory gardens back in WWI. Here is a film on the WWII victory aka war garden. The Victory Garden 1944 D. D. Teoli Jr. A. C. : D. D. Teoli Jr. A.

Some of it is highly collectable and hard to find on the cheap. But if you look around enough you can get some deals. Vintage AG selections from DDTJRAC... Even if you are not into gardening, you can be successful growing fruit trees...if you have the land. (My guerilla trees all died from the deer shredding them.) Once established, trees find their own water and are pretty self-sufficient. (In temperate climates.) If you don't want to be a slave to your fruit trees...plant disease resistant varieties. I used to help a friend out with his orchard and picked up some pointers from him. I fantasize about getting some flat land and putting up a greenhouse...to grow some fig trees! (And maybe a warm weather persimmon or two.) Fig trees and boogie boarding in the polluted Santa Monica Bay are about the only things I miss about L.A. You can grow fig trees in cold Z6, but you have to grow them in pots. Again, they require you to be a slave to them. The cold kills fig trees to the ground or altogether out here. I was raised with fig trees in L.A., so have a special affinity for fresh figs. In the Rustbelt they are $1.49 each for crappy Brown Turkey figs...if you are lucky to even find any at the greengrocer. Even though figs don't grow well out here, we get some great peaches. Red Haven peaches are superb, and the white peaches are also fantastic. I forage a little for abandoned fruit trees out here. I found some abandoned apple and European pear trees. I also found an American persimmon and some paw-paws. The paw-paws are an interesting fruit. They are something like a tropical custard apple, but not as good. There was also a nice apricot tree I would forage from years ago, but someone cut it down when they took over the property. Apricots are iffy out here due to the late spring freezes. If you got some land...plant some fruit trees! Make use of your land.

I've just finished up cutting up about 11 feet of oversize magazines like Life, Look, Saturday Evening Post, Pictorial Review, Modern Priscilla and others. I wanted to collect the advertising and any special articles. I use a large format sheet fed scanner (if I can) and cut off the binding to run the individual pages through the scanner. But it all depends on if the stock is coated and has gloss black ink. If it does not, the pages have to be flat bed scanned as matte black ink or gloss black ink with uncoated paper stock, fouls the scanner rollers. Anyway, as I would cut off the magazine bindings, I would get inserts and coupons that fell out. After a spell it occurred to me to archive them. It the 60's they used magnetic ink to sort the coupons as well as punch card holes. Pretty interesting...well maybe interesting if you are an archivist. Punch card coupons.

DDTJRAC I got a few old photo albums in the Archive. You find some interesting things in them. But you need space to store albums and some $. While they are not overly expensive, interesting ones can go for a few hundred dollars each. Here is a photo from one of the European photo albums. Yearbooks are another interesting area of collection. Since there are so many yearbooks, I tried to concentrate most of my yearbook collection scope to women's colleges. This idea came about as an offshoot of my collections on flappers and bobbysoxers. Many of the yearbooks have collage pages and I made a separate collection just of the yearbook collages.

Photo: Solomon D. Butcher via L.O.C. Back in the day, if a gal didn't have a broom or it got worn out, she had to make one or have hubby make one or buy a new one in town. It was her job to keep the house clean and she had to do it with whatever tools she had. Once a tool becomes worn out it is not efficient to use, it wastes time and energy. Sometimes hubby was off trapping for months on end and a drive to town was a major undertaking only done a few times a year or less for those in the wilderness. It was up to her a lot of the time to make do with what she had at hand. So, when she got a new broom or apron it was a big deal, versus having to make one. And getting a newfangled stove was like hitting the jackpot, compared to cooking over the hot fireplace in the summer. A stove made it easier to bake bread rather than using a Dutch oven in the fireplace. (Dutch oven = cast iron pot with lid.) And she would have to bake bread almost daily. The rich families had 2 stoves. One for winter cooking indoors and one for outdoors summer cooking. They could even have a separate summer kitchen building. If not rich, the stove would be moved outdoors for summer cooking. That is where the phrase 'Pa stoved his back' came from. Pa would hurt his back moving the heavy cast iron stove outdoors. Before washing machines, I've read a woman could spend 6 hours with her hands in the wash water doing clothes by hand when it was wash day. So, it was a most welcome present getting a washing machine for a Christmas. Nowadays, the gals would be pissed if they got a broom or washing machine for a Christmas present...but not in the old days! We take a lot of things from granted now. When electric lights first started to replace gas lights, electric wall sockets were not widespread as yet. Maytag was one of the early washing machine makers. Thor was said to be the first commercial electric washer sold in the USA. You could even power some machines with a water motor. Ads from 1909 - 1917 Daniel D.

Hello! Sorry if this isn't the right section of the forum for this type of question. I've been doing some reading on the history of motion picture cameras and something got me curious about the mechanics used in them. It seems some early film cameras used the geneva wheel mechanism for advancing the film for exposure. And a lot of projectors have used the same mechanism for decades more. But apparently it didn't took long for camera designers to move away from the geneva wheel to use pull down claws of various forms. I imagine there is some reason for that. First I assumed it could be that pull down claws are more precise or durable, but it seems that projectors kept being designed with geneva wheels through out the XX century. And I got the impression that projectors need the same precision and probably even more durability than cameras, as they might run for a lot more hours overall. Considering the the geneva drive appears to be a lot easier to design, manufacture, assemble and repair, does anyone has an idea on why that happened? The only reason I can imagine is noise, maybe the claw mechanisms are overall more silent. That would explain why the geneva drive on cameras was more common in the early days before sound for film was developed. Also, if anyone has any recomendation of any book or text regarding the history of development of the mechanics of film cameras I'd love to learn more about that!

I decided to check out the history of film stocks and their different formats, and I realized that there are no actual full-frame movie stocks that were ever developed or used for cinema back in those days. Full-frame as we cinema people interpret it today, from what I understand, came from digital manufacturers making sensors based on the 135mm film stock dimensions made for Photography: -Which are ~35mm wide in its negative and ~24mm tall negative(which is approximately the actual width of negatives on Super35mm film stocks, so basically it's like someone rotated Super35mm stocks 90 degrees) -Pulled along horizontally rather than vertically, which is actually what allows the ~35mm width negative Unless I'm missing something, why was there no Full-Frame( not the full-gate 35mm but the actual negative 36 x 24) ever used? It was quite surprising to see that cinema film stock developers decided to just jump straight into Medium Format from Super35. The only thing that might come close to it is VistaVision, but I'm not 100% sure if that actually qualifies as full frame . Thanks -
I was reading the year 2000 edition of the Kodak cinematography field guide and among the essential supplies for a ditty bag it listed orange sticks, which I believe are thin, 4- or 5-inch long sticks used by manicurists. They have tapered ends. Is that what Kodak is talking about? If so, does anyone know how camera operators and cinematographers used them? Do they have any relevance today?
