<p>Last week I tried to scan a VP122 negative on a flatbed print scanner, with bad results.<br>

This one is a scan of a contact print on the same scanner. The contrast is improved from the print. <br>

As before, I believe this was taken in 1956 or 1957, though I developed the roll a few days ago. <br>

The film came from a store in Michigan, but I had figured that the bridge looked more like the Mackinac bridge before I looked up where the store was. <br>

I don't know the actual camera, but can be pretty sure by now that it is classic and manual. I suspect that no automatic cameras using VP122 were made.</p><div>00cnNm-550786184.jpg.a6f461d8df0c208fb04867eb87a4b48b.jpg</div>

<p>From the same VP122 roll, a house, presumably in Michigan. I suspect the lighting was better than the bridge picture. Again with the contrast adjusted in the scan.<br>

There are no frame numbers on the negatives. (When did Kodak start putting those on?)</p><div>00cnNt-550786584.jpg.49ace39321f5513437ae4e96dc222cc2.jpg</div>
