UNINTENDED PHOTOGRAPH I never realized, in 1969, that this first roll of film in my new Pentax camera would record a historic intersection of transportation in old Saigon. The 44-year old black and white exposure shows an iconic Renault taxi cab, in the same traffic flow with two other relics: a cyclo and a bicycle. All three have disappeared in contemporary Ho Chi Minh City, replaced by motor scooters and automobiles. I call it "historicart," art that is history. Fredericksen
