Depression on the Beach
I've made this point before, and with this album page, I'm able to make it again. While the Great Depression was devastating to the lives of many, others survived, and even thrived during the era. It looks like these two kids were never hungry or homeless. My father, born in 1919, was both.
For those who can't make out the writing: Above the kid with the toy airplane, "July 1930." Below the beach photo, "August 1930 3yrs 10 mos."
