I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up several batches of slides a while back from Goodwill and eBay. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. There are thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here mainly because I find them an interesting way to look back at the past.
I don't know a whole lot about the ultimate origins of this batch of slides other than they came from Goodwill. Like previous batches, these too often have a date stamped on them that I assume indicates when the film was developed and I believe in most cases should give approximate dating for the photograph itself. So far these seem like mostly vacation photos that were taken in the 1960s and 1970s. I've identified places in Italy, France, Mexico, and Hawaii so far.
All of the photos in this set were processed in August 1970 which means they were likely all taken in Italy based on the contents of previous sets with the same date.
The first photo was most likely taken at the Church of San Miniato Al Monte in Florence, Italy. There have been other photos of this church in a couple of previous sets.
The second photo seems to show a house or some other kind of building under construction. It looks like this photo was taken from the window of a moving car.
I can't really tell where the last two photos were taken but they appear to have been taken at the same time and place and show a family having a meal on a balcony somewhere.
