Vintage Photos - eBay Set #1 (217-220)

I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up a huge batch of slides a while back. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. These were from Goodwill and eBay (sometimes via estate sales). There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here for posterity.

This set continues a batch of slides that I bought on eBay a while back. I don't have as much to go on as to the ultimate origin of these compared to the previous batch I was working on. They came to me from eBay and most likely were picked up at an estate sale by the seller. Most of them seem to be taken in the 1960s and same individuals are included in many of the photos. It looks like there are some that were taken in Miami and some that were taken in New Jersey and perhaps elsewhere. I get the impression that Miami was a vacation spot for this family.

The first photo in this set is not dated but as with all the other photos from this batch it was probably taken in the mid to late 1960s. It shows a collection of shells spread out on a bed, probably in a hotel room in Miami Beach somewhere based on previous photos.

In the second, also undated, the lady is posing on a beach, again probably somewhere near Miami Beach.

The third photo was processed in November 1966 and it looks like the guy is getting a fire going to cook hot dogs, marshmallows or other food items. There have been a number of other photos from this same place scattered throughout previous sets..

The last photo is undated but looks like it was part of an Easter celebration. There are four kids all dressed up with the youngest about to dig into some kind of dessert. The chocolate bunnies on the mantle behind them give away the fact that it is Easter. Other Easter photos have shown up in previous sets but it's hard to say for sure if they are all from the same Easter or not. Definitely all from the mid to late 1960s though.






processed November 1966
