Alias Smith and Jones

Alias Smith and Jones
This image is one negative, with multiple exposures, and was taken with a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Flash 620 camera. It was of an episode of "Alias Smith and Jones" and as you can see, the storyline starts at the top right and goes down, then moves over left one row and repeats the process for all four rows. Also, almost half the images are from the opening titles and theme. Anyone who's ever used a Brownie Hawkeye will remember the subject is reversed in the viewfinder. I knew that, but forgot and thought I was starting at the top left of the frame.

There are some overlapping screens at the bottom of row two and I'll bet what happened was that I was waiting through the commercial break for the show to come back on and at the last second I decided to capture the information about the Solid Gold collection - just in case I wanted to order it for myself!

I used to have one of those GAF Viewmaster projectors and a bunch of reels in the 1970's, so I probably came up with the idea to try this in emulation of those. If anybody remembers the viewmaster reels, they were in 3-D and usually only had one reel of 7 different frames to encapsulate a whole movie, cartoon or television episode. Some of the more ambitious ones had two or more reels to tell the story better, but most only had one round "reel." I remember having the movie "The Love Bug," and there was only one reel for that. I need to see if I still have that reel or any others - maybe I can scan one of those!
