Fantastic - the ones from Russia look fantastic, don't they? They could have been taken today! ... and you just don't associate that period with colour, outside of paintings. Thanks for the link!

Is this actually for real ? I remember Peter Jackon's
Forgotten Silver, I think it was called, a gret New Zealand Mocumentry that had a fair few Kiwis convinced their actually had the first colour film, first manned flight etc...


It appears it is for real, here is what Wiki has to stay.
