Hi silversurfers: I thought you might get a kick out of these old
government photos. Some from the depression days & others
the homefront during WW-2.

Hi P-f: Sorry but for some reason they won't come up. I
tried my best. Oh well it was just some old photos so not
much is missed. Take care:

'just' some old photos?? 'just' ????
Oh John, I have been poking round and they are wonderful!
If the fifth one on your list ( which ends in ...951v.jpg) is this one
which is a fantastic photo
Then this url will take you to the folder
That gives a list of folders which seem to have pics of what you
described. I just looked at the numbers of your urls and related them to
the last 3 numbers of each subfolder ( so 951 was in the subfolder called
1a34900) . I have bookmarked the main site and reckon I am going to spend
quite a few interesting hours there.

I heard that things were bad back then with the drought but
I never realised that even the houses shrivelled up too.
Is this a sign of the times?
I must say that I was surprised at the number of pictures that
featured John's dungarees :-)

Hi andon: I love those dungarees. Since 1939 when my dad
bought them for me I had the waist let out 97 times. Actually
some new material was added from a circus tent. Fashion is
my life. LOL

the ... seems to be where part of the URL has been elided for display
purposes.
choice of choice of four numbered folders to (double-)click on, which lead
to more folders, which contain pictures. There seems to be four versions of
each picture, in differing sizes and formats.
collection John was in.
Very interesting John, I've book-marked the main site.
Pity I can't identify which particular pictures you wanted us to see.

I was converted to the "comfort look" years ago.
I only wear tailored trousers when I absolutely have to.
My waist is the same size now as when I was 16 :-)
Shoulders got a bit broader, my head swelled on occasions,
and my height has decreased a fair bit.
I hate fashion - nasty french idea.
I like style. Just like your hat. "Stile dal Cuore"
