we already had plans to steal him away and make him coat and process Kodachrome for his remaining years, so now we have a location, sweet!

Seriously I don't think Kodachrome will ever come back, but I would certainly like someone to start making more paper to optically print my slides... there's certainly a market for it, sad the last remaining company stopped, perhaps Ilford could be convinced to make a batch run, and the stock could be held at photo stock?

Less than $1400 from the goal!

 

[Sean]

Very close now. We need to keep it going though, if it hits the goal there are usually unforeseen expenses and this project will be even stronger if it overshoots the goal.

I want my name on that wall too, I just need to pay my car insurance and credit card bills first... lol

And it's funded...

Very true.

I hope the negotiations for Ron's relocation to the artists' loft are going well, I assume he will come with a coating machine or two in his luggage....

While the chances of me ever making it to Photostock are non-existent (unless you need a cleaning maid/on-site barista perhaps?), I absolutely love what you're doing, Bill. My pledge probably won't do much more than keep you all supplied with coffee for a day or two, but I hope even that little bit will help.
Congratulations on reaching your target goal.... now you just need a few more people to keep you caffeined up for the other 363 days of the year

 

[Richard S. (rich815)]

Keeps going! Over $33k now.

 

[Whiteymorange]

Better late than never. I'm in, Bill.

 

[djhopscotch]

Done and done.

 

[Steve Smith]

"With less than 40hrs left on the campaign", I'm in.

 

[John McCallum]

Hi Bill glad I could sneak in and support. John

 

[Blooze]

I'm new to APUG, but had to give to this worthy project!

 

[StoneNYC]

Alright, so I contributed enough to be "imortalized" it's the best I can do this month, it's the slow season, I've worked 6 days this MONTH :/ normally I wouldn't back something but this is important and motivation to go someday and see my name, how do I fix it to say Stone NYC instead of my real name though?

EDIT: I said "this month" but it's only the 11th, I meant in the last 30 days...

Just curious... I am in Michigan and wondered where the project is located?

It's a 10 acre spread in the U.P. that Bill Schwab bought some time ago with this project in mind. I believe it is in area of Cross Village, MI.

I just got the message from Sean and learned about this project; yes, some people live under a rock . I'm at work and cannot access the Kickstart site (network security settings) but I would like to contribute. If not too late I will do it tonight when I get home.
Great effort, Bill - thank you. Way to go!

 

[toro_mike]

Thanks for the reminder Sean, I nearly missed out, but did just get a contribution in (I don't need no rewards!! HA!)... This is a great cause and I'd love to get up there with my 8x10 someday...

 

[himself]

just managed to slip in a couple dollars before time's up.

just wish I could partake... maybe someday, we can but dream

It is not in the UP it is in the northern part of the lower peninsula near a town called Cross Village north of Petoskey.

 

[Bob Carnie]

I call it a little bit of heaven , and I am so happy for Bill, We at Dylan Ellis Gallery are planning an auction for June 6th and I hope to be at photostock this year with a financial contribution from his Canadian Fans and Friends.
