This is a c1960 image taken just south of Barrie by me – but not immersed in icy water…<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. One winter in the early 1960s, the brother of a buddy’s girl friend had the misfortune to lose his car through the ice in Kempenfeldt Bay, Barrie. Weeks later, my buddy called me to see what I could do – he had recovered a camera from its icy grave in the car’s glove box. The car had been\u00a0raised from its wet and soggy grave for scrap once the ice went out.<\/p>\n

I removed the film from the camera in my darkroom and soaked it in room temperature water to unstick it and wash off the backing paper. Once it was developed and printed, I saw some B&W photos of interest only to those in the shots.<\/p>\n

Recently both George Dunbar and Russ Forfar (thanks guys) emailed me about a website article in Calgary on a similar topic. CBC Calgary<\/a> headlines the column as “Mysterious Developments website publishes rare gems from old rolls of undeveloped film<\/em>“. Take a read and if you are intrigued, then check out the website Mysterious Developments<\/a> for more finds.<\/p>\n
