        (Of course, $16 in June, 1963 would be equivalent to $128 in June, 2017 -- via https://inflationdata.com/Inflation/Inflation_Calculators/Cumulative_Inflation_Calculator.aspx … ) Best wishes always....

        "Blue Dot" flash bulbs- so called, bc the subjects could only see a blue dot for a minute or so after the flash swamped their foviae.
