From Riga via Antwerp to Africa


...

A shop in Antwerp which is closed since I live here but with such a nice window. I ask myself which kind of special luggage they sold here once. I would like to look once behind this window-could be that it is still full with old stuff! Sometimes you forget, that Belgium had such a close relation to Congo-it's maybe because they want to faid out their past.
Years ago I bought on the fleamarket in Brussels 24 old filmrollboxes with the negatifs still inside. I developed them and came across an expedition to Belgish Congo in 1953-then still a colonie. Will show you later some of the fotos.
