Smokie, you have no idea! Not only was the photography good, but the slides were stored in a fairly cool environment for all these years. (I also had the misfortune recently to scan in some slides that spent the last 27 years in a hot closet in Florida and the deterioration was devastating -- faded almost all the way to extinction, sadly.) My mother kept her slides in a dry, dark, cool closet in western New York, so hopefully, I'm just at the beginning of lots of cool images (there are boxes and boxes of slides!!!!). I'm a little afeared of what's going to happen once I hit the instamatic camera era, though...

Outstanding. These images are all of incredible quality given their age.
