Shorpy.com is such an amazing way to spend time on the internet that I'm posting about it again. Shorpy is a collection of incredible vintage high resolution photographs of yore on all sorts of subjects. Click here for my favorite series taken by Russell Lee of Pie Town, New Mexico in 1940. The ones of the Pie Town BBQ Dinner in Kodachrome (one is posted above) are stunning.

The color in those transparancies is truly amazing. BTW, Pie Town is still alive and well about 160 miles SW of Albuquerque and you can still get a great piece of pie at the Daily Pie Cafe.
Those pictures are great. You don't get to see much color from those days. AND, all those people are dead.
WOW. Great site, Anne. Thanks!
What a great blog! Thanks for the link.
