I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up a huge batch of slides a while back. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. These were from Goodwill and eBay. There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here for posterity.
This set continues a batch of slides that I bought on eBay a while back. I don't have as much to go on as to the ultimate origin of these compared to the previous batch I was working on. They came to me from eBay and most likely were picked up at an estate sale by the seller. Most of them seem to be taken in the 1960s and same individuals are included in many of the photos. It looks like there are some that were taken in Miami and some that were taken in New Jersey and perhaps elsewhere. I get the impression that Miami was a vacation spot for this family. Despite the weird numbering change, this is part of the same batch of slides I have been scanning...not sure what I was trying to do with the numbering...
The first three photos were all processed in May 1965. I don't know if they were taken on the same day but they definitely all have an animal theme. The first is more cat acrobatics. There was a similar photo in the previous set no doubt taken at the same time. The next two show squirrels. Previous sets have shown a pet (or at least caged) squirrel though these seem to be wild squirrels out in the yard. Perhaps pre or post pet status...
The last photo was processed in August 1966. I'm not sure who the couple is as it is not the normally featured couple. I'm pretty sure this is another photo from Miami Beach of which there have been many throughout previous sets and these are probably people they met while on vacation or possibly friends they were vacationing with.
