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 was processed in November 1966. It's a bit blurry but it looks like they are cooking hot dogs in the back yard.
The second photo was processed in August 1966 and was clearly taken on the beach. This is most likely Miami Beach as many of the other beach related photos have been.
The third photo was also processed in August 1966. I believe this is the inside of a motel room, again likely on Miami Beach.
The last photo is undated but would have been taken in the mid to late 1960s as well. It was taken inside an Asian restaraunt of some kind and I assume that the other people in this photo was the family who owned it. There have been several pictures from this restaraunt that have shown up in previous sets.

The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.
