Yes, Andrew, they are.  My Dad was a Marine and, true to form,
"four-sheets-to-the-wind" on his wedding day.  The photog did a great job of
organizing the "cats who would not be herded" and the photgraphs are great.

The key point here is the frame numbers. It was customary to cut roll
film into single frames and pop them in a little glassite bag with
the prints, at this time, especially with negs this size where the
standard print would be a contact print.
It's a big roll though - I'd guess Kodak 122 - as used in the old
Autographic folders or something of similar size. Not what a pro
would use though - are they professional shots?
