Lost Films
is the project of a single photographer, but spans the work of many. He acquires old cameras that still have film in them, or comes across exposed but undeveloped film. The film is developed and what prints can be salvaged are made. Though they're mostly family snapshots, there's something fascinating and lovely about these glimpses into the lives of ordinary people and the decades they lived in.

Neat stuff! Amazing how well-preserved the undeveloped film was. I like some of the crazy stories he makes up about them too.
