Photographs Mis-remembered

So that roll of film that I’d been holding on to for 31 years; the roll that had been in a film container inside of a Tri-X pan box, which contained photos taken at the BCHS Baccalaureate on June 6, 1979, actually does NOT contain any such pictures!  Additionally, despite my having written on the outside on the Tri-X box that it contained color film, the roll of negatives are clearly black and white film.

I picked up the processed roll of negatives on Friday afternoon (there was nothing of any quality worth printing) and took them home to view on my PC’s scanner, only to find what appears to be photos taken in someone’s home, perhaps posing for prom or graduation photos(?)  Now I am totally confused.  Maybe the camera I borrowed that night from Warren was already loaded, which was the roll of film that broke?  If so, then where is the roll of photos that I took during the Mass? 

I went back to the box where the Tri-X pan box was stored, and discovered 4 more containers of unprocessed film (2 color, 2 Plus-X pan) that I will need to have developed next week.  Could one of the color rolls be the missing photos?  This is puzzling…

A Memory of Photographs

Literally.  I finally took that 30+ year old roll of undeveloped film from the June 6, 1979 BCHS Baccalaureate to a local photo shop in Princeton for processing.  I have no certainty that any of the photos taken that night will produce quality negatives and prints, but we’ll see when I pick up the order on this coming Friday afternoon.
