When I was a kid, you could go to the local Stuckey's and by a package of five or ten 35mm slides of the local tourist attraction, take them home, put them in the projector, (Or one of those little hand viewers if you didn't own an Agfa Cube.) and relive the all American road trip. Anyway, in Europe, in 1948, tourists bought envelopes of small black & white photos of the local sights. I've got a lot of photos from Gloria Lee's trip, but only five pictures taken by members of the tour group. I've got 39 of these commercially produced photos, but after this, I'll be taking a break from this collection, so you'll have to wait for parts 2 through 8. If anyone can identify any of these locations, please feel free to leave a comment.
As usual. click on The Post War European Trip Collection in labels to see more.
