Kodachrome Display at St Patrick TTC Subway Station Toronto

Image
Last month I was thrilled to come across this wonderful public installation of Kodachrome at St Patrick Subway station in Toronto. The display was part of the Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival and featured photographs taken by Chris Lund, a self-taught photographer who worked for the National Film Board of Canada. You can read more about the installation here.

   I love this photo! It was taken in the early 1960s in Hollywood Ca.  I currently have it for sale on Ebay if you are interested in the original slide.
