Over the weekend I got outbid on some Harvey Llyod slides of Kuwait dating back to 1979. They were being sold as part of an estate find and according to the seller, there were 180 film slides of Kuwait covering a wide range of subjects. I didn’t think anyone would be interested in them but I ended up getting outbid on them by someone I’m guessing is some kind of collector in Kuwait since their bidding history involves a lot of old Kuwait stamps.
So in case whoever won these slides reads my blog, can you please get in touch with me? I was planning to scan all the slides and share them here so maybe we can still do that.

Try reaching out the seller, he may deliver your message to the actual buyer.
good idea actually!
Where can slides like these actually be developed into photographs?
if my memory serves me correct it used to always be difficult to develop slides into photos back in the day. Nowadays though what I would do is scan the slides into a digital file and then send them to a printer to get printed.
Where was the bidding place?
ebay
Hey Mark I have a bunch you might want to look into but again it’s just a bunch. You know the museum in Hawally (Bait Al Othman) I think it’s the name. You might want to check with their manager (curator) I know when touring with him this is how he obtained a lot of the artifacts in the museum. Again just a hunch😊
