Bound for Glory: America in Color.

By Alex in Everything Else on Aug 22, 2006 at 1:05 am

From the website:

Bound for Glory: America in Color is the first major exhibition of the little known color images taken by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information. These vivid scenes and portraits capture the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations, the nation’s subsequent economic recovery and industrial growth, and the country’s great mobilization for World War II.

This one above is a photograph of a woman working on "Vengeance" dive bomber in Tennessee on February 1943, taken by Alfred T. Palmer.

    These are beautiful…this was my grandparent’s generation and my folks were kids during this time period. They’ll appreciate viewing the photos and the locations.
