A Person of Mystery

A while back, through sheer chance,  I acquired a Century Studio camera that had belonged to Howard Eastwood, a photographer I admired.  The camera came with some 8×10 film holders. One of them had a sheet of film in it with the position of the dark slide indicating it had been exposed.  As far as I knew, the camera hadn’t been used in 40 + years. I’d never seen Howard use it. Chances were high that if the film holder had an exposed sheet of  film in it, that film would be hopelessly fogged by now. It’s not so much an age thing; it’s almost impossible to pick up an old film holder and not open it. With that in mind, I threw the film in a tray and sloshed it around for awhile.  Imagine my surprise…
