From my Emulsive Secret Santa in Sheffield, England:

First, the unwrapping:

The Labeling:

And now the contents:  A Camera and three rolls of film.

Plus the tchotchke I requested.........

So now where are we?  The camera actually has a story the results of which can be viewed here:

Here is a summary from my introductory letter pictured below:

"....This camera has a bit of a history in that it's spent the last few month travelling the length and breadth of  of the United Kingdom (and even got to the south of France on one leg of it's journey) as a part of a project on an online photography forum. The camera was loaded with a roll of film, the first person shot five frames, and then the camera was sent on to the next person.  The process repeated (with a half-way set of photos when a second roll of film was loaded) until it eventually got back to me.........."

AND MY PLAN:  To Start a similar project for 2020 Travelling across North America.  Check out the photo link, and If You are interested, send me a message/comment..........here or via Twitter: @AnalogPhotoBug
