I am indebted to Merle Flitter Grollman for the loan of this photograph, which was made in the summer of 1948 at the "Camptown" day camp of the Easton, PA Jewish Community Center. I believe it was shot by Bob Potter. The dating results from the presence in the photo of my aunt, Channa Levi, then "Hilda Snyder" (far left, standing) and her then husband-to-be, Avraham Levi, then probably known as "Alfred" (top row, fifth from left).
This photo was in not great shape when I received it, and I spent hours cleaning it up. There are two or three faces which I cannot restore without a duplicate print, if someone has one.
It would be fun to assemble an identification chart of all the people in the photograph. Please send your ID list (left to right, row identified) to melsnyder@egmail.com. And please circulate the URL of this photo to as many current and former Eastonians as you can!
To view this image, CLICK on it with your mouse and it will get bigger.
To download them to your computer,
1. Click on the desired image
2. Scroll down till you see the word "original" under the image and click on it. You will see the screen slowly fill (overflow) with the original digital image.
3. When the image is done loading (scroll down to see the words "large" and "original" again), then RIGHT CLICK (click with the rarely-used right mouse button) and you will see a "save" command choice. Click on it, and you can specify where to save the image on your hard drive.
To properly print out these (or any digital photos), you will need at least a simple image processing program -- ranging from the free one available at http://www.irfanview.com to the excellent $90 Paintshop Pro to the $700 Photoshop.
Enjoy! -- and feel free to Email me at melsnyder@earthlink.net if you have any questions. Mel Snyder
