Great time, Wilk. Thanks for the memories. (Wait, I think Bob Hope said that first.)
I remember all of the things in this post. With the B&W, I couldn't tell if any of the bulbs were blue. How many of us remember blue flashbulbs????

I remember flash bulbs too well. Still have the blindness and roaming burn spots in memory.
Great use of B&W with these images. My favs are Tilt-A-Mite III and Circle II.
