If you have digital copies of the images already, you can upload them at the Collector's Quest community, as I did with mine: go to http://www.collectorsquest.com/community.html and set up your account. If you need to get them digitized, there are all sorts of scanners that can do it for you, or your local photo studio may be equipped for it. Sounds like a great collection of Rose Parade memorabilia! Hi, Marsha!

We lived on the grounds of the Wrigley estate, our house faced Arbor St. (first house past the rose garden) All through the 60's we were very active in all the festivities leading up to the parade. I helped put flowers on the grand marshal's car and was in the kitchen of the "big house" during the prep times. I have hundreds of pictures and slides. I also have many pieces of memorabila--silver bowls, ash trays, high ball glasses and promo cars. I have a wonderful photo of Max Caldwell and Former President Eisenhower when he was Grand Marshal. Also his and Mamie's signature on a Tournament of Roses napkin. So many wonderful memories--playing in the Wrigley house, picking fruit off the trees and meeting so many wonderful people. How can I share these photos? Would love to share these memorable times. Thank you, Marsha My Grandfather worked for the Tournament of Roses in the 1960’s.

All the shots were of the garbrage and postal trucks. from the village. Now the movies I took were really great. Would my daughters be upset seeing the antics they preformed for the camera?
