    I love the formality of some of these old photographs, with everyone dressed up for the photographer. I remember several such framed photos around the house when I was a child. Then people got their own cameras and it became a normal thing to take photos of visitors or pictures of family members whenever they were dressed up to go to weddings or such.

    I used to have a book of Curtis's photos. He did great work with the Native Americans. I enjoyed these old photos, thanks for sharing.

    Iconic images all, but the girl with kittens caught my heart. And I wholeheartedly agree with Pete Seeger's quote, as today the plastic frame of a glass shelf in my refrigerator broke, which I had already fixed before. I found a used replacement shelf on eBay for half of the retail replacement but it should never have broken in the first place.

    And thanks for the comment on my short post this weekend. It was totally the result of returning yesterday from a long road-trip vacation and I didn't have the energy for anything more.

    These are great photos! I like the Pete Seeger quote; he was quite a legend.

    A wonderful wide array of photos. I especially like the children standing beside the tot in the perambulator. But my favorite has to be the woman running from the field toward whoever that is at the top! :)
