The portraits of the women from the 40s working in the factories are stunning.

Color tones are too artificially vivid.
It is so implausible such technology in photography existed then.

I uber-recommend this!!! This collection of photographs are images that gives us a unique view into past lives. Most of this photographs speak volumes on scoial cultures of their time and ours. My favorite picture is the one of "Rosie the Riveter". It's a black woman, helping a war, helping a nation that is racist and sexist. I could disect this picture for hours!

Apparently Rosie the Riveter was fictional, but interestingly close to the photo here of the African Am. woman. I thought at first they intentionally changed her race for the 'campaign'. Interesting collection, didn't know they made color slides that long ago.

Uber-cool!

The colors snap, and these photographs bring the past to life (rather than being the usual dreamlike b&w visions of pre-1950 that we are used to).

Trust me, these are well worth taking a look at.
