SLIDESHOW TITLES (pre-Powerpoint)


No.1 in an occasional series of Frank's Ephemeral Findings
I came across these rather charming title slides whilst rummaging through Bill Pepper's now-defunct attic darkroom recently. The two children smoking on the 'growing up' slide are particularly delightful. Who still remembers the family slideshow...the darkened room, the hilarity of a slide inserted upside down, the satisfying clatter of the carousel? Apparently it's all done digitally these days often with added Ken Burns effect, whoever he may be.
