Thank you.
I must admit I did not give that a thought before, but is interesting to learn that colour photographs even from such an appearance, even in the US are a rarity.

Kodachrome was at 64ASA in 1964.
The highest speed film available in 1964 was Anscochrome at 200ASA.

Don't these guys know? Didn't they get the memo?

"Let the name of Kodachrome be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of Egypt. Let the name of Kodachrome be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men for all time."

(With apologies to the late Cedric Hardwicke ...)
