Those are awesome pics. I love looking at that stuff. Really cool. Notice anyone over-weight in those pics..... nope! they worked their butt off and didn't have much to show for it... Funny, almost every kid in there is filthy dirty, clothes and skin. Great to look at history.

I noticed the weight thing as well as the shape of the clothing. Wear those clothes until they are done.

School pics without shoes.

Beautiful!! I could look at those over and over again. I'm sure those were shot with Kodachrome. Its amazing how we see all those nice bright colors from back then. Hmm makes me think all the worlds a sunny day, oh yea!!
