July 5, 1963 Afga Photo Shop East/side Emmettsburg Road, Across from Wax Museum, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Dear Sir: I purchased a roll of Koda color 35 MM Newspeed X at approximately 3: P. M. on July 4th, and you may recall I discussed it cost me around $9.00 in Tampa to get a roll developed, and you mentioned this sounded high, but this it might be so since I got 3x5s developed. You may recall me from the above conversation, but the point is I am trying to locate a completed roll of the same file which I took out of my camera at your counter as I inserted newly purchased roll. I recall placing my exposed roll in the new metal container I had just purchased from you. That roll is irreplaceable to me since it has pictures of the dedication of our Florida monument at which ceremony I presided July 3, 1963. It is just a hope but I am writing in the belief I may have left the metal container with the undeveloped film in it on your counter. If this is the case, I would appreciate it very much if I could mail you a check sufficient to cover the developing and mailing of the film and pictures, together with an amount in addition which would show my appreciation. If it is inconvenient for you to write, please answer on the back of this letter, and mil in the enclosed self-addressed stamped envelope. Thank you very much in advance, I am, Very truly yours, Paul W. Danahy
