They probably came from an amusment park of boardwalk booth. The images are probably mirror-image, that is, right is left and left is right, due to the fact that there was no negative used in the process. The processing used is called reversal process, and only takes a few minutes from camera to finished print. Maybe someone out there knows the range of dates, but I would expect somewhere in the early 20th century. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
