Have your got a Scanner and an email.

but if you do, do it and its a lot of pics. then just make a winrar or zip and
post it to rapidshare its a secure link you just copy the url address
from the page showing its ready to download when its done and pm me the url.

id be very interested in both WWI and WWII do you have any naval pics.
also I am most interested in a Picture of the first raising of the small flag.

What it would be worth I would have no idea about the value of your original
prints but I am certain of there historical worth if you digitize them and make
them available to online databases.
MM

unfortunately i dont own a scanner, but i recently got a nice digital camera, maybe i could take some high res pics.

that probably wont work well right now im trying to figure out a way to mail you my scanner this is important I feel from the nature of the pictures
I will get back to you asap

I noticed a bunch of scribbling on your example pics. Where those done by toddlers, and where they punished for destroying those historic photo's ?:rotfl:

I would assume so, the source of the pictures (most not all)
was D A Bell's family and when I did the work Mike Kemble
on whos website they appear had lost touch with them
however it is assumed it was one of D A Bells own children
sometime after 1948.

visit mikes website on Johnny Walker and the second escort
group just click the whimbrel link in my siggy.
