Today is my mom and dad’s wedding anniversary! This picture was taken by my aunt as my parents left St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin on October 25, 1958.
Wow, the color is still fantastic in this photo! I have photos from this era that have deteriorated, but some color slides from that time period still look great. Was this from a slide?
Thanks Heather. I’m pretty sure that my aunt made this print from a slide. The entire set has a similar look to it – kind of dark overall, but at the same time, the colors really pop! I do have about 40 trays of slides from my parents that I just started to scan also. It’s a big job, but they are really turning out great.
