Featured russian space photo, slides ?

can anyone tell what these things are and if they would have any possible collectability

are they photo slides ?,

they measure 70mm square 55mm image

were some of the images captured in space ?

any thoughts appreciated

 

The images are from the american apollo program.

It is nice that they haven't faded to red, that is what happens to most commercial slides like this.

If there is no mold or dirt on them they are a neat item. Not necessarily rare though.

 

Cool, thanks for the info requiem

 

Presuming the first two are of earth from the moon, pretty cool actually

The earthrise (another good name for a band )

The title on the box, герцеговина флор, translates to Herzegovina Flor. Just found out that it is a brand of cigarettes from the Soviet Union. So the box had nothing to do with the slides.

Russian Wikipedia entry for the cigarettes... you can translate using Google Translate: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Герцеговина_Флор

 

thanks fig, thats good to know, fits in perfectly with what requiem said

if i didnt know that i would have probably tried selling them as russian space slides !!
