Early skyfotos

Good afternoon Urbiehome and welcome to our Forum

I do hope that you can give us advise, in order to get our Forum more interesting.

Re Skyphotos. don`t know if you`ve noticed that our late friend Rick Cox posted a lot of them too, which we could varify due to our Back-ups made in all those years.

Most of them turned out to be Thumbnails only, but one can easily find the right sized ones now. If the source, like Sjöehistorik Museet at Stockholm is stating that Skyphotos made

them, we`re adding this information. Rick bought his photos at Auction and Fleamarkets, when info on the back of the photographs revealed the name of the photographer, he added it,

when posting.

Best wishes from Hamburg
