I found a very small box of 35mm negatives from 1961-1962 on the shelf by Bremerton Sun photographers.
A few images found:
- South Kitsap basketball goes to the state tournament.
- Dry Dock 6 is dedicated.
- Snow…my there used to be a lot of snow and ice skating going on here in Kitsap.
- The toll booth of the Manette Bridge…a whopping 10 cents to cross back in the day.
- Armed Forces Day Parade.
- Swim classes at the pool at Evergeeen Rotary Park in Bremerton.
***Remember, the only information I have on these images is what is written on the negative sleeve which is then typed in beneath the photos seen below.

***I also feel the need to put small plea on this post because of some slightly unscrupulous re-postings – if you are going to share these photos around social media and what not (which is totally fine) PLEASE credit the Kitsap Sun. These are our old but still copyrighted images and it is important to note that they are credited to us. ***

Those are some great photos. I’m trying to figure out how that basketball photo was done in the days of low ISO and apparently without a flash and with a decent depth of fiel too. All I can think is that gym must have been bright or some sort of gian difusser was used for a flash.
Shawna, for that basketbal photo, they must have really pushed that push process!
