There are lots of cool photos in that link. You can see many hats in several of the pics.

Great slice of life pics. Loved the split-window 'Vette, and the shot of Main Street c. 1941 judging from the newest car in the pic.

 

[Dutch McCoy]

Very cool pics - thank you for the link. Here's one of my home town a few years before I was here.

 

[Doh!]

Love these. Cars had such personality back in the day.

Scenes from the 30s

I like looking at old photographs and snapshots - a little bit of imperfection gives a better feel, more realistic capture of the scene.
Here's a link to my little website where I've posted a few vintage photographs.
There's one for People, one for Automobiles and one for Airplanes and Travel. Check 'em out!

Its not a commercial site, and has no advertising. Enjoy!

Those are great, Rocky. I've seen the old Kodachromes in this thread several times now, and while I still enjoy looking, it's always good to see something fresh.

Thanks Rocky

Swell bunch of pics. Can't see too many pics from this era.

Is it just me, or is there something about a woman in jodphurs?

Mix me an old fashioned!
