<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 9988898, member: 6444"]Not really wacky. Just not purely chronological. The numbers may have to do with the need to write on the negative? I don’t know how that was done. And there are some “typical” shots, see below, but I think the traveler was more interested in where he was, than he was in getting himself into pics. The writing on the Stonehenge pic I particularly find cleverly self-deprecating: “491 Stonehenge, Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire, England - and a visitor from Kansas - May 9, 1922 (Constructed about 1700 BC)”.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]501630[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]501632[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]501634[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]501636[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
