Well told story... with the limited number of images used. The history of America, post depression. It's been said that we may be heading there (the Great Depression) again. Time will tell.

Instead of soup kitchens it'll be burger stalls.
Anyway, the best music comes out of hard times.

I like this photo:




It kind of reminds me of this one taken a couple of months ago with an early SV, Super Tak 55mm f1.8 on Kodak BW400cn.

Our city is full of these row houses...and fire traps they are. Pretty much if one goes a few other follow suit.

Here is one street.


Awesome pics. Damn Kodak for quiting on Kodachrome.
