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.
The first three photos in this set were processed in June 1966 and based on photos in previous sets with the same date they are from Italy.
The first two photos are shots of the entrance to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna, Italy.
The third photo shows a young girl on a ride. This may be Pinocchio Park in Collodi, Italy but that's just a guess based on the fact that that is the only amusement park type place I've seen in these photos.
The last photo was processed in August 1966 and taken on a beach somewhere. Based on other photos with this date, this is probably in Mexico somewhere.

The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.
