It reminds me of some of the photo collections the Library of Congress has online. They sent photographers all over the country to record the state of things and there's a lot of "documentary" shots like that.

That's really cool, does anyone still do anything like that? Sounds like a sweet gig, for anyone not independently wealthy.

I don't know if they still do it, almost all of it is from the 60's and earlier. It was the same sort of program that got us all those depression era shots from Dorothea Lange.

I'm glad that even in the 60's people weren't afraid to make jokes about recent tragedies.

Nah, keep the vintage sepia. Fixing it takes away from the photo.

Oh my god far right kid's outfit is loving amazing

I was never dressed up like that but his haircut is a horror I had to live with for almost 15 years.

Every time my mom brings out the pictures she's all AWW CUTE and I'm all "what the gently caress was wrong with people in the 70's and 80's" :geno:

I like how even in the 40's/50's there were assholes that couldn't be bothered to clean off their windows before going for a drive.

He's definitely the free spirit of the group, always coming up with crazy get rich quick schemes.

It goes back even further than that, it started back before color was invented when villains would tie girls to the rails.

So it's good to see some progress on that front.

For me it was my first full day at a new job, figured I'd picked a cool place to be if everyone stood around all morning watching tv. Don't remember how long after that I stayed ignorant, but I know I watched none of it live.

Crazy there was a world where we didn't all have the internet in our pocket 24/7.
