Album Info:Here are six original 35mm Ektachrome slides that were taken by Mr. J.W. Vigrass. Other than his name and two processing dates, there are no other identifying data on the slide mounts. I purchased all of these slides in a single eBay auction conducted by Mr. Nathan Dahms on Saturday, 28 March 2020.
