In 2015, Irish camera collector William Fagan bought a Leica III camera that dates back to 1935. He got the vintage camera with film, protected in a Leica FILCA cassette, which Fagan set aside and revisited only this summer.
When he finally developed it, however, the images came out really good. No wonder Fagan took the 70-year-old Perutz film to Mella Travers, who owns The Darkroom in Dublin, and the two carefully worked on the film through a one-hour stand process with a diluted developer.
But this wasn t the end of the adventure; it was just beginning. The 22 shots were trying to tell a story of a glamorous young woman and an older gentleman in what appeared to be their journey through Europe.
