Kodak processed Kodachrome or Ektachrome original slide unless notedpreviously published *These are classic old original slides from major collections. Most are Kodak Processed Kodachromes. Some are as old as the early 1940's, the very first years Kodachrome was available. Kodachrome is known for its amazing color stability, and you will see some 70-year-old Kodachromes listed here that look as if they were shot yesterday, but be aware that after 50+ years, even the best quality photo dyes may begin to shift. *Expect to see some dust specks on the scan, and often there are minor imperfections and/or scratches from normal handling and projection over the years. Examine the scan carefully. My scans are unedited, so "what you see is what you get". *Many of these vintage slides were published in the years before the digital revolution. They were removed from their mounts, duplicated by analog methods, and remounted, either in their original frames, or in generic replacement mounts if the frame was seriously damaged in the process. I will note slides that are not in their original mounts. Depending on the publisher, some are very neatly remounted; some are not. As the original mount and the photographer's notes are critical to establishing the authenticity of the slide, previously published slide mounts are offered in "as is" condition. *Slides noted as "previously published", will be taped on one or more edges. The mount will be serviceable, but will NOT be pristine. Some weakening of the cardboard may be present. If a pristine mount is critical to your collecting interests, these slides are NOT for you!*To my friends in Canada and Europe: YES; I'll gladly ship to you! Shipping is by International First Class letter for up to three slides. Larger orders will ship via International 1st Class package or International Priority Mail flat rate small box, depending on value. For your protection and mine, I cannot falsify customs documents. Contents and value will be accurately recorded on customs forms. *I will automatically combine individual orders that are placed on the same day. For Domestic (US) shipping, orders above $100.00 are shipped First Class Mail; orders above $200.00 ship by Priority Mail at no charge to you! *Invoices will go out the same evening or next day.*Payment is due five days from auction's end. Please pay promptly. If I have not received any communication by day 10, the item(s) will be filed in the Ebay "unpaid items" file.*Non-paying, non-communicating bidders will be permanently blocked from future auctions*Older Kodachromes and sharpness- Remember, original Kodachrome film speed was 10! Yup; 10. Imagine trying to get a sharp image of a black Nickel Plate Berkshire doing 60+mph on a cloudy day! The digital razor sharpness we expect in our images today was only a distant dream in the 1940's and 1950's.*The scan is the description This is the slide you will receive.*If I've missed something, contact me ASAP. Due to the advanced nature of current scanners, I cannot accept returns, UNLESS I have overlooked a significant issue. I will gladly accept a return for full refund of purchase price and shipping on any slide with a genuine problem that I have overlooked.**SHIPPING** THIS IS IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!I assume by now that everyone is aware that the USPS has "slowed down" some services. The reality is that ALMOST ALL USPS services have slowed; some only slightly; others by a LOT! First Class Mail is my method of free shipping. It is much slower than it was only a year ago. The good news, if any, is that most of the mail eventually gets where it is going. SO, PLEASE DO NOT open a "not received" case if your slide does not reach you by Ebay's scheduled arrival date. That date is a pipe dream with absolutely no basis in reality . Once you open a case, I have to "resolve" it quickly to Ebay's satisfaction, usually by issuing a refund. Invariably, the shipment arrives shortly after that, and Ebay provides NO mechanism to repay for a lost item after the seller r... read more
