So I guess there's no such thing as an "Old, Good Photo?"
Not every shot from WWII was soft, underexposed, over contrasty and grainy!

(I get what folks are saying though. Consensus everywhere is running about the same .. Plane looks too good)
I thumbed through a huge collection of photos that came from a gentlman who was part of an RCAF crash salvage team during WWII. His photos were great (for the period) but I found them just a bit soft compared to stuff I see today and the two of my own I was looking to age.
I wasn't saying it can't be as nice and sharp as yours, I'm just throwing out a different thought. Same sort of comments I got when I tried to age my Harvard shot.
I'm hoping to get alot of those crash pics online shortly.
You're just too damn good for a 40's photographer, Jay
