Well Woodsy,
I found a decent enough photo of our old ashtray. The photo dates from Christmas of 1963 and I can see where my far-less-than perfect memory got several of the details wrong.
But there you have it anyway. You can just spot it standing to the left of our new, state of the art portable stereo unit.
The ashtray appears in a couple of photos from a few years earlier, but it's much harder discern in those pics.

Ed- couldn't help injecting a bit of colour back to your snap - old Polaroids tend to lose a lot of the blue/green pigment when exposed to light, so I took it into Photoshop and re-adjusted the colour! Voila its 1964 again! Bill
Oh Wow! Bill, that is awesome! That is precisely how it would have looked. Thank you so much!! BTW, the red sofa and accompanying chair were gosh-awful uncomfortable - hard as a rock to sit on (like Flintstones furniture) - and the fabric was rough and scratchy. I remember as well the sofa also folded out into a bed.
ReplyDeleteif you have any other snaps that have faded Ed, send em to me. its a simple process and no A.I involved either! Bill
DeleteIt's funny, but I do have Photoshop. I can turn color photos into B&W but have yet to figure out how to colorize B&W pics. Thanx for the offer Bill but with terabytes worth of old photos I'm afraid you'd get overwhelmed if I sent them to you! :-)
