Easter Parade

This was one of eight images on a roll of film I found inside an old Jiffy Kodak Series II 620 camera downtown at one of the local antique stores. All eight images were of children, but this one was the only one of this particular dark-haired girl. The rest of the pictures were of a girl and boy, some together and some apart. I don't know who any of them were, but the film sat in the camera for probably over 50 years undeveloped. I had the film developed by Film Rescue International, and although the edges were fogged, they still did a great job and magaged to pull out some images.

I had to do quite a bit of work to lessen the effects of the deterioration on the negatives. I cleaned it up first, lightened it up, straightened it slightly and then finally cropped it a little. I'd say the images were shot around 1964 and they look to have been taken around Easter because of what the kids are wearing in some of the shots. I believe the film was Kodak Kodacolor-X.
