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...
The first photo was processed in June 1968 and shows part of some kind of modeling show that was also seen in the previous set. I guess this is what the fashions of 1968 were like.
The second photo was also processed in June 1968 but features two older individuals that are well dressed and apparently at some kind of party/reception/etc. There were also other photos of this same "event" in the last set.
The third photo is undated but looks like it was taken at a bar in someone's man-cave. They are drinking "Ronrico" rum which I had never heard of but is apparently still around.
The last photo was processed in February 1966. This is some sort of get-together, maybe around Christmas time given the color of the candles. It looks like they are eating some kind of desert and it really looks like Jello. there's a playpen but i don't see a baby or small child in the photo. Possibly dead of second hand smoke.
