Any idea why they wore winter coats everywhere they went? They were in Canada at
Corpus Christi, which was on June 7th in 1928. The tour must have been March to
June???


It was 1926. And it would have been Sunday, June 6th that year. The page
has the dates from the tour brochure, and then ancestry.com has the dates
they left England and arrived in Quebec City. There were about two months
on their own after they left the cruise. Though I'm sure that portion was
custom designed by a travel agent for Canadian Pacific.

They left NYC on February 9th. Clearly winter coats were needed then.

I just looked at Sintra. The men wore suits and the women winter coats. I
looked at Egypt. No winter coats! I don't know.

And I'd like to see it in full hi-res, or 1080.


Me too and with the contrast changed so that it is not so dark.


My brother has already lightened up some very dark portions. I don't know
anything about film and what can be done to make it better.
