Interesting colour pictures of 1930's America.

Will these days return?

Worse things could happen...isn't much of the UK like this? Hope so for your sake...it will bring you back to reality.

1939 - 1941 according to the photos.

Heh. Many americans have returned to the quality-of-life as depicted in those photos.

Certainly since 9/11.

I think that was when the first farm programs started. Unemployment was maybe 25% in the cities. The U.S. government didn't want a bunch of unemployed farm families adding to the problem.
