~photo/pnn/1950/1950_a/readme.txt 9/1/08 Originals: Kodachrome 35mm slides, slide mounts date from 8/52 to 8/55. Digitized 8/6/08 with Nikon Coolscan 5000 scanner: 5782 x 3946, TIFF output, 16 bit depth. From: PNN Cavalcade tray #12, label "Alexandria / Fair Hills / Bill & Stlla / Gramp. / Dad R. / Mabel & Gram", no date; PNN Cavalcade tray #13, label "Detroit Lakes / Rettingers", no date; SAN Bell & Howell cube, no label, no date (p80). Date: Guessing 1950, based on T-shirts and ages (SAN 3, DN 10?). These are some of the earliest (and best) of PNN's slides. This group probably contains Fair Hills slides from several different years, SAN looks much younger in some. In p72 ff., SAN and DN wear Harvard T-shirts, almost certainly from PNN's Harvard Advanced Management Program. I thought he did AMP in 1952, but maybe it was 1950 instead? [Kodak used these slide mounts 5/49 to 5/52, according to http://www.historicphotoarchive.com/f2/kodachrome.html.] FIX_ME: About a dozen of these are misfiled, with later slide mounts dating from 8/52 to 8/55. The later slides are likely from the summer of 1952. Locations: p01-p21: probably cabin near Alexandria, MN on Lake L'Homme Dieu. p22 ff.: Fair Hills Resort, Detroit Lakes MN. p01: ?, ?, ERN, SAN, DN, Anton. [Seriously underexposed in shade.] p04: PNN, SAN, DN in matching Minnesota Centennial 1849 - 1949 T-shirts. SAN holds a tennis racket, not a badminton racket, but it appears to have no real strings. See also: p61. p05: SAN, DN, Anton in swing. p06: ERN, PNN, DN, SAN in front; T-shirts as above. p22: DN, SAN, PNN on tennis court at Fair Hills Resort, Detroit Lakes, MN. p23: Emma Swanson (ERN's foster mother), ERN, George Rubin (ERN's dad), Jennie Rubin (ERN's step mother), DN, Mabel Rust (Emma's tenent), SAN in front. p26: note movie camera in DN's hand. p31, p37: Fair Hills softball. p32: HiYo Silver! p35 - p36: SAN with his favorite floatie Splasher. p40: Rettingers + ? (per ERN notes). p47: Very young SAN at far left, never happy when on horseback; compare p69. p52: DN, ERN, SAN on the golf green; note ERN's outfit. p55: The elaborate Fair Hills birdhouse. p66: Rettingers (per ERN notes). p69: SAN on horseback; compare p47. p70: SAN on horseback again, but probably a year (or two?) after p69. p71: SAN at right of front seat. p72: Fair Hills group picture: SAN front left, DN second from right in second row. p75: Another group picture; SAN front left, DN rear right.
