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. 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. Despite the weird numbering change, this is part of the same batch of slides I have been scanning...not sure what I was trying to do with the numbering...
All of the photos in this set were processed in August 1966. At least three of them were taken in Miami Beach. While the usual couple and probable owners of the camera are featured in the last shot, I'm not sure who the individuals are in the first two. Possibly friends or just people they met while on vacation in Miami. It's not as clear where the third photo was taken. It appears to be in front of some kind of store or other place of business. You can see the reflection of palm trees in the windows though so chances are that this is somewhere in or near Miami as well.
