A Minox Scrapbook of Photographs

The following photographs are some very informal samples of actual Minox photographs; all were taken with a Minox LX using commercially purchased and processed ISO 100 Minocolour film from Germany (doing my own darkroom work was not an option for me at the time). The ISO 100 loadings of Minocolour available then were a little grainer than what is available today. No sharpening of the scanned images was done, although the original photographs do look slightly sharper themselves.
