I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up several batches of slides a while back from Goodwill and eBay. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here mainly because I find them an interesting way to look back at the past.
I don't know a whole lot about the ultimate origins of this batch of slides other than they came from Goodwill. Like previous batches, these too often have a date stamped on them that I assume indicates when the film was developed and I believe in most cases should give approximate dating for the photograph itself. So far these seem like mostly vacation photos that were taken in the 1960s and 1970s. I've identified places in Italy, France, Mexico, and Hawaii so far.
All of the photos in this set were processed in July 1975 and all appear to have been taken in Hawaii.
The first photo shows a sign that says Kona Surf. I don't know exatly what this place is but I assume it refers to the Kona district which is on the western side of the Big Island in Hawaii. I suspect that other photos in this set and perhaps in previous sets were taken in the same area.
The second is a shot of the coast and looks like it was taken from a moving car.
The third photos is a shot of four ladies whom I assume were vacationing together. It looks like they are probably at a resort on the beach.
The last photo is another scenic shot of the coastline. There seems to be a crowd of people down the hill...
