Depression-era color photos
I really enjoyed looking at these pictures. They are the oldest pictures in color that I have ever seen. If you are a history buff or if you are just really old, you might enjoy having a look. They are from the 1930's (depression-era) just after color film had been introduced. It cost half a week's wages to buy just one roll of this new film back then, according to this webpage.

I just saw these pictures for the first time a few days ago, Amey. They are really good ones. Times have changed a lot, haven't they?

Yes, times have changed a lot. I also like to look at the pictures posted at http://www.shorpy.com/ These older pictures aren't in color (mostly), but they are fascinating all the same.
