Colour CCKW Picture


Vulture

Recommended Posts

Stumbled across this high quality colour slideshow on the web. Spot the tantalising photo of the CCKW 352/353. Just a shame more of the vehicle isn’t shown... http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/08/world-war-ii-the-american-home-front-in-color/100122/Kind'>http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/08/world-war-ii-the-american-home-front-in-color/100122/Kind'>http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/08/world-war-ii-the-american-home-front-in-color/100122/Kind regards to allVulture

 

Try it without the 'Kind' on the end - http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/08/world-war-ii-the-american-home-front-in-color/100122 :cool2:

Most of those pics seem to be copies from a Time-Life magazine color spreads I've seen.

 

I should dedicate some time to finding all the CCKW color images.... maybe get a paint guide compiled.

 

One thing to watch for are recolored B&W images. The original kodachrome process is very sharp. The colorizing process blurs them up a bit... Some are easy to catch, but others are quite good.
