If the past is a foreign country, this is your passport
These images are Autochromes taken by Clifford R. Adams in England in 1928 for National Geographic.
Absolutely love the particular colour that only Autochromes gave; no other film produced then, or since, had the same natural colours. Great photos by the way!

Well, I’ll be darned… is that the Mauretania?? What a great set. Also love those “drink milk” posters.
I love the ad headline: ‘All the best people… drink milk.’
Fantabulous stuff!
A blue Australian flag in 1928? should really have been red unless this was official government business??
