Found Film: “Backyard Family” and “My Puppy”

In a continuing series in which I share photos I get from old rolls of film that turn up out there, whose original owners forgot to ever develop them…

Here are a couple of rolls where I barely got anything whatsoever, but you can still make out just a bit of detail.

The first is a roll of Kodacolor-X on a 620 spool which came from Pittsburgh, PA. ย Tragically, I made a mistake spooling the film inside the changing bag, and parts of the film were touching each other in the developer chemicals. ย But through the fog you can still make out the details of a family in their back yard, posing for photos. ย Lots of “bowl haircuts” make me thing this is from the mid-1970s.

The second roll is a 24-exposure roll of 110 film, Fotomat brand. ย The film and camera were already pretty cheap to begin with, but time has taken a further toll. ย Using such a small negative didn’t help things, even when the film was fresh. ย From the haircuts and clothing, I’d guess this film is from the early 1970s, and someone has a Very Special Dog!
