Die Fotos. Zur Erläuterung.
Grundsätzlich war es - aus gutem Grunde - nicht gestattet, während der Veranstaltungen der Majors im Auditorium zu fotografieren - ausser dem vom Veranstalter beschäftigten Fotografen, der seine Aufnahmen aber noch auf Film gebannt hatte und daher nolens volens nicht ad hoc zur Verfügung stellen konnte.
Die hier vorgestellten Bilder sind nur eine kleine Auswahl von extrem heruntergerechneten aber sonst ohne jegliche Bearbeitung hier eingestellten Fotos, die entweder während der Podiumsveranstaltungen am ersten (und zweiten) Tag mit einer Filmkamera "geschossen" wurden, oder aber an den jeweiligen Abendveranstaltungen, zu denen die Film-Studios und -Vertreiber eingeladen hatten.
