  This is incredible. The quality is so good that it's hard to believe it's such an old image. -- Seen in a discussion of Raleigh Social Group. (?)

  This is awesome. My grandmother worked at Douglas during the war effort, doing wiring on aircraft. I'll have to show her these.

  Yeah it is easy to forget just how good film was/is. Amazing that something 65 years old can still deliver such a superb image.
