Tue, 18 November 2008  I was handed this little gem of a promo postcard one night several years back while shooting pictures at an event at the Belmont Harbor Yacht Club.I'm not entirely sure why I scanned it and have kept posting it every holiday season since. Maybe I just like that way that a tiny artistic addition has taken what previously had been a pedestrian piece of clip art and transformed it into something worthy of Charles Addams.

Selected ChicagoScope podcasts are digitized using original analog magnetic tape from our faithful Marantz PMD222 monaural and PMD430 stereophonic cassette recorders. Otherwise, content is digitally captured with Marantz PMD660 or PMD620 recorders. During editing, some material is recorded directly into GarageBand on an Apple Macintosh PowerBook equipped with an Applied Research and Technology Tube MP preamp.
Eastman Kodak's 126 cartridge format is still going strong in a project that conscripts vintage Instamatic cameras, flashcubes and Kodacolor II film that's been frozen in suspended animation for more than 30 years.
ChicagoScope does its best to deliver full stereophonic sound whenever possible.
