This is part of a Rare Estate Film Lot Find.
Up for auction are a lot of films from a Canoga Park California Estate shot in the 1960s. The photographer lived on Lurline Avenue and many of the films were processed in Hollywood at the old Technicolor Corporation location and also the Kodak Processing Lab on North Las Palmas Avenue in Los Angeles. Another family member lived in Northridge and there are four films sent to Darby Avenue in Northridge too.

A little about some of the places indicated:
Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton is the major West Coast base of the United States Marine Corps and serves as its prime amphibious training base. It is located in Southern California between the cities of Oceanside and San Clemente. The base was established in 1942 to train U.S. Marines for service in World War II. By October 1944, Camp Pendleton was declared as a "permanent installation" and by 1946, it became the home of the 1st Marine Division. It is named after Marine General Joseph Henry Pendleton, who long advocated setting up a West Coast training base for the Marine Corps. Today it is the home to a myriad of Fleet Marine Force units including the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force and various training commands.
San Onofre State Beach is a 3,000 acres (12 km2) state park located in San Diego County, California, USA. The beach is 3 miles south of the city of San Clemente on Interstate 5 at Basilone Road. Governor Ronald Reagan established San Onofre State Beach in 1971. With over 2.5 million visitors per year, it is one of the five most-visited state parks in California, hosting swimmers, campers, kayakers, birders, fishermen, off-duty Marines, bicyclists, sunbathers, surfers, and the sacred Native American site of Panhe.
Located between San Onofre Bluffs and San Onofre Surf Beach is the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS), which generates enough energy to power 1.5 million homes in Southern California.
Death Valley is the lowest, driest and hottest valley in the United States. It is the location of the lowest elevation in North America at 85.5 m (282 ft) below sea level. It holds the record for the highest reliably reported temperature in the Western hemisphere (134 °F (56.7 °C) at Furnace Creek in 1913, as discussed below) - just short of the world's highest, which was 136 F (58 C) in El Aziza, Libya on Sept. 13, 1922. Located southeast of the Sierra Nevada range in the Great Basin and the Mojave Desert, it constitutes much of Death Valley National Park. It is mostly located in Inyo County, California. It runs north-south between the Amargosa Range to the east and the Panamint Range to the west; the Sylvania Mountains and the Owlshead Mountains form its northern and southern boundaries, respectively. It has an area of about 3,000 square miles.
Shasta Dam is a curved gravity concrete dam on the Sacramento River above Redding, California near Shasta Lake City built between 1938 and 1945. Like another curved gravity dam (Hoover Dam), it was a continuous pour concrete project, and in its day, ranked as one of the great civil engineering feats of the world. The dam is 602 ft (183 m) high and 3,460 ft (1,055 m) long, with a base width or thickness of 543 ft .The reservoir created behind Shasta Dam is known as Shasta Lake and is a popular recreational boating area.
Please note that the film is in overall good condition for their age. A couple of films mention 1/2 dark or a couple are not full feels. The films are sold "as is where is". Sorry, no returns. The film has been inspected but not projected and appears to be in good condition for its age. I have not viewed the films and cannot gurantee that the label matches the contests. Please note that old film is prone to break especially at the splices. Thanks!
