See the previous post in this series here.
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 (sometimes via estate sales). 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.
The first two photos were processed in August 1966 and show two kids (siblings?) sitting on a couch. I think one of these must be reversed because they are clearly sitting on opposite ends of the couch and you can still see the leg of the boy in the first picture in the second picture as well.
The third photo has no date but was also presumably taken in the mid to late 1960s. It shows the lady featured in many of the photos in this batch with three kids (though none appear to be the same as the kids in the first two). I'm guessing maybe grand-kids.
The last photo, like the first two, was processed in August 1966 and shows the couple most prominently featured in this batch of slides on a boat somewhere. The only photos near the beach that I've been able to identify have been in Miami and I'm guessing this is also somewhere near Miami.
