The 300 Slide File





As part of my on going project, The Escape Committee (where I am planning to drive across Europe in an Austin Cambridge to follow in the footsteps of my parent’s journey to Turkey in the sixties.) I asked Mum for some more shots from the trip. 
    All the images from the journey were taken by my parent’s friend James ‘Jimmy’ Holmes and while he has a host of images himself these are the ones that my parents own.

Mum dug out this very cool 300 Slide File which has been home to their collection of images from the trip for over forty years. It’s still pretty cool I think. 


So, over the next few weeks I’ll be sorting through them to see which ones should again see the light of day. In the meantime for those fans of the period here are a couple more shots for you.
Have a good week. Matt
