[PRCo] Re: Snow Pictures

[Mark McGuire]

  What is interesting to me about the snow photos are a few photos of car 1500 on a winter fantrip. Quite a few years ago I purchased a small box of photos with negatives attached from a little shop in Elgin, IL. There were photos of this fantrip included and I sent them to Dave's site to be shared. I feel rather cheesy having them posted with "The Mark McGuire Collection" heading as they weren't my photos, merely a collection I stumbled upon. I really wanted to know who took the photos. It could have been a number of people who were on that fantrip in February, 1965. John Bromley pointed out the fact that one of the photos(with negative attached on a manila envelope) was on page 159 of "From Horsecars To Streamliners". Sure enough I checked it out hoping to finally discover the photographer. Alas, all the caption said was "from the James D. Johnson collection". 
  Were these winter photos taken by Tom Parkinson? If so, he was on that fantrip and might be able to enlighten me as to who's photos I actually stumbled upon. Maybe James D. Johnson actually took the photos, but I am not sure.
 Anyway, I'm done with them and would like to know if the museum would be interested in some more photos with negatives. Ed? I would also like to credit the actual photographer on Dave's site if possible.

Gentlemen,

Thanks for the help with locations on the PRCo pictures I posted last
year.

My digitizing of slides continues; over 20,000 now. The process is 
described at http://www3.telus.net/public/wcpha/SlideDigitise.htm.

In touch with the winter season I have just posted 100 images of PCCs in

the snow: http://picasaweb.google.ca/etbtraction/PRCoSnow#

I hope you enjoy.

Tom Parkinson
