KodakGirl.com News
A few months ago I decided
to display my photographica collection on the web. The stuff had been sitting around in
boxes, some of it for over 20 years, and I wanted to share it with like-minded
collectors since most of my friends weren't particularly interested. I enlisted the help
of Kukky (Ryuji Yamamoto.) a savvy Japanese computer graduate student who lived down
the hall, organized the material, photographed it with my brand new digital camera
and voila! A website! Two months and more than 12,000 hits later I am overwhelmed and gratified at the response from around the world. I have heard from photo historians, museum curators, and people who fondly remember my father in his photo store, the Camera Mart. A fellow collector of film wallets donated a few to my collection, a parenting site wrote to say they had linked my site to their role models for girls list, and many other collectors have emailed contributions which I'll add as soon as Kukky can take time away from his demanding studies at Columbia. Thank you one and all for your heartwarming response. The Worldwide Web has lived up to its name! |
