    1930's color photos

    I just found this website with about 50 or so color photos dating from before 1940. I thought I'd share it in case someone here might be interested.

    Wow, those look great. It's so different to see the 1930's in color.

    That's a great find!

    Haha. Reminds me of the Calvin and Hobbes cartoon when Calvin asks his dad why old pictures were always in black and white.

    That first pic (and the more famous close-up) of the mother during the Depression was shot in Nipomo, CA, about 30 minutes from my hometown of San Luis Obispo.

    Thanks for the link.
