Rare pictures from the history of soaring in Greece.
Almost all photos are in Black-and-White. Color photos of the early period are non existent. First color photos are in bad shape today, as the colors have weathered badly. In the later years color prints were casual shots, not very interesting. Better material was still in B&W or in color slides. After the 70ies color photographs became standard, and B&W photos are rare.
Photos are filed by decades.
By pure coincidence, in each decade, soaring in Greece has followed a different fate.
Following the photos you also get a general idea of each decade's soaring history.
The collection may seem to focus on certain persons. This is the result of scanning
personal archives.
