At the request of HKFP, Sergei Sputnikoff has scanned hundreds of Kodachrome slides of historic Hong Kong captured by a distant American relative he knew as Uncle Bill. See part one here.

“He travelled all over the world in the 70s and 80s and took a bunch of slide photos… When he passed away, my father-in-law saved his slide collection from being thrown away. Then I saved it when he himself decided to throw it away,” Sputnikoff said.
Uncle Bill visited the city twice, in 1971 and 1980, capturing around 300 scenes.
