|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Stunning color images from the post depression era Eric Isaacs, Photographer Santa Barbara | CA | USA | Posted: 3:26 PM on 08.05.10 ->> Hopefully I am not reperating ane arlier thread but these images are really cool to look at: http://extras.denverpost.com/archive/captured.html They are from a Denver Post blog that describes them thusly: "These images, by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information, are some of the only color photographs taken of the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations." Very enjoyable viewing. EMI  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

After seeing a couple on there I really liked, I went to the Library of Congress' site and d/l several of the Chicago ones, one for a print for my wall and a couple others for a friend who's a big train buff. Nice file sizes, 75-100 mb for a tiff, the neg borders have been scanned, makes for great prints.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
