Neighborhood Boys, 1964
When I look at this the intro to “Wagner’s Ride Of The Valkyries” plays. From the same family that I posted yesterday—Zion, IL. The box I pulled it from says 1964 but you guys know better than me! This picture is epic to me in a couple different ways, what’s your favorite thing about this shot??

Someone didn’t know how to use the viewfinder…
More personal favorites from the archives. I got these from an estate sale and every single pic from this packet was like this - off center and everyone’s heads cut off! I love these so much.

Found in Old Film Camera, Boston Family Christmas
Hi everyone! I bought a film camera last week and half the roll was already used. I developed it and there were some amazing family photos on the roll dated late '04 to Halloween '05, and I really want to get these to the family! Since they were sitting in a camera for 20 years the quality isn't great, so I sharpened some up to try and pull out some identifying traits, the most important was this fishermans 'Boston Hookers' shirt tagged Glouchester MA! (but of course it might not be Glouchster and some glitch, but def says Boston) Attaching this photo and some others here... such a long shot, but if anyone recognizes people in this photo or anything of help, please DM me and share!!

Found a cat at savers
I was sad to see him alone and forgotten. So I brought him home. The lady next to me said "thank god" she felt bad for him as well. Fingers crossed the back of the print has a name. Otherwise idk what to do.

Question to all of you that find these photos....
I'm the last of my family line that I know of. I have a significant amount of family photos that were not intentionally given to me. I do not have the space to keep them. I have 2 choices in my current life situation, throw them in the trash or "release them into the wild".
I inadvertently found this sub before this was an issue in my life. From this sub, I was recently struck by a strangers need to know "who was this person or people!?"
So I am proposing to you, what would you do? The people in these photos and albums are family but long gone with no personal ties. The family that would have had knowledge on them have already passed. I have a generally idea of ancestry but nothing specific, Finnish and Swedish.
Any and all thoughts are welcome!

I've selected some more nice photos for you
Hello! About half a year ago, I found a strange hobby. I collect negatives from flea markets, scan them, and upload them to my website.
Recently, I reached a milestone - 10k frames scanned. There are plenty of interesting frames, and even more not so interesting ones.
I’ve picked some to share on Reddit, but there were too many for one post, so here’s a subset of my favorite photos.

Found Family Photos in film camera (Boston?)
Hi everyone! Bought a new film camera from a collector and it had half a roll used, I developed it and there were some incredibly precious family photos. Based on a christmas gift held up in one photo, it looks like Boston may be a good angle, but could always use the help. Please help me find them, DM w any tips or just please share it!
