I saw this link a few days ago, and thought I’d share it because it has photos of Delta Colorado, where Lauren grew up and from Lincoln Nebraska, where she likes to shop.
These images, by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information, are some of the only color photographs taken of the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations. The photographs are the property of the Library of Congress and were included in a 2006 exhibit Bound for Glory: America in Color.
