What a fantastic piece of history. A truly amazing shot.

Ira Shander replied:

Thanks Joe. I saved this Agfa slide from my first time in Europe. (1969) London was the the first stop. I was so excited to to see new worlds. Everything was a first. And we got around without Google maps.

Another amazing blast from my past! Thank you for sharing these highly emotive, nostalgic shots, Ira. I often used to get off the Tube at Tottenham Court Road, if they were doing maintenance on the lift at Goodge Street, when I worked in the Medical School at UCL. I used to take my camera film to Underwoods to be developed. I did not, in my wildest imagination, dream of a digital camera!

Ira Shander replied:

Kathryn, thank you again for your kind thoughts and perceptive observations. When I took this Agfa slide in 1969 it was my first day in London. I had never been out of the states on my own. London was such a great and exciting experience. Lately everything I saw starting to come back into my mind as I originally experienced it. When I first started getting serious about photography at 17, I always tried to capture the "right" moment. As in music, timing is critical. A different world then.

I was trying to guess the year. Was going to predict 1974 but see from your description that I’m a few years out. There’s something fascinating about photos from a bygone era.
