[Capedcollector]

Very Nice indeed. There are wonderful

 

[MooCriket]

That was cool! Thanks for posting the link.

 

[NAZGÛL]

Yeah, I love those!

 

[Apollo]

Classic!

I love how he has his eyes closed in one of them! :lol

 

[WhiskeyBeard]

Your welcome folks, I figured that was worthy of a first post.
I love how rare those must be.

But they aren't 'test shots'. That is the backlot of Elstree. They were shooting
then. Look at the pieces of struck set.

 

[Too Much Garlic]

Just look at some of those poses... he really is a poser... .)

 

[ecl]

awesome shots!

 

[Martin-El]

Indeed, the Thirties semi's in the background are as British as fish & chips so that's Elstree alright. Weird to think all the best cinematic adventures were shot just down the road...
It's an extraordinary set- Ford looks in his element...

 

[Truro]

Is it me or does his hair look even more scruffy in those shots?
Awesome shots thanks for the link.

 

[Yellowjacket]

Nerf-herder.




Those are great.

 

[Chrisisall]

Wow. Never seen those!

Those photos are "contact photos", those are very rare.

 

[Jaruemalak]

Yeah, but $3000 for a set of photos, each one about 1 inch by 1 1/2 inches seems a little pricey.

(Before anyone argues, they are shot on Kodak Tri-X 35mm film, and a contact sheet is just that... the film strips
are laid onto a piece of photo paper and glass is put on top to hold them flat. Light is shined through the negatives
and the paper is developed.)

 

[Clutch]

They are 'proud' of their stuff.

This is exactly how these are produced, still a nice sequence of shots, but not for 3k.

Yeah for that much I would hope that I would actually be receiving the negative film. Otherwise I'd say $20 is a reasonable price for tiny tiny filmstrip developed pix I can't display.

I know they're rare photos, but offer them in 8x10's or something substantial.

I'm sure most folks are gun shy about buying an item like this off ebay. This is very easy to reproduce.
