    Amazing pictures.

    I shoot tones of photos in black and white film but it takes ages for it to get developed at a normal shop. I started to learn how to do it myself but I never got around make it permanent.

    Now I just have to see if I can scan some of my pics to show them.

    Here's four pics i've scanned from my grandfathers album. He served his time in the Finnish Navy sailing ship named Suomen Joutsen (Finnish Swan). The old man himself poses in the first and second pic. First pic is taken in New York at 1937.
    On the third pic Finnish Swan is at the port of Dakar, Senegal (???).
    I have no idea what happens in the fourth pic

    If you like your black & white photos vintage and curvy, here is a great site Vintage Venus - Vintage Posters - the most luscious & desirable vintage posters and prints you'll ever see!. I keep checking to see if they ever offer any shave related photos. Some of the photos may be too risque for some, so if naked ladies offends anyone, please do not look. Here are some of the photos that I have purchased from this site and I consider them to be high quality and they frame very well.

    I'm really liking the theme of this thread. I'll be back with some B&Ws to share.
