Color War Slides from Ian

[Tom B]

I so wish it had been a colour film war (not that anyone actually wants a blinking war, but you know what I mean). Just look at the detail on the guy's uniform. What Tom said.

yes

[i.spring]

me too !

Here is another great shot.
Im reading at the moment the original 1945 version of Wing Foot (ww2 unit history of the 101st Cavarly Regiment)
I can actually match up many of the day by day entries to individual color slides in this amazing collection.

For example:

101st Cavalry Regiment hook up with French 2nd Armoured Division, 4th May 1945, Traun River near Siegsdorf, Autobahn

I just got this single shot because I like a nice color slide with a little tad of humour.

Hope you like it as well.

Happy you like it Consi !

Im very proud to own these color slides in my collection.
Very rare color slides showing the Funeral of General George S Patton in Heidelberg 1945.

Patton was always one of my heroes.

hi guys.
I think so as well.
The officer in the 101st Cavalry Regiment took 11 color slides of different parts of Pattons funeral.
I looked around and cant find any other color photos of this event.

Please God I can put together this mans photos into a nice photo book. Basically the last 85 days of World War Two in color...

Ian.

Here is a new one I just added at the weekend. Berlin Zoo 1938. From a small group of zoo color slides I bought over 10 years ago.
Not military but a fantastic example of pre war agfacolor photography. Beautiful rich colors.

Enjoy !

I hope your all having a nice weekend.

Things are a little quiet at the moment with collecting color slides but I still found a few nice little pieces to add to the collection.

Here are my favourites from the new stuff.
Best wishes.
