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. 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 most 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 photo in this set was processed in January 1967 and shows the couple that seem to be the subject of most of the photos in this batch as a whole cleaning up in the kitchen. Probably after some Christmas 1966 or New Year's 1967 party. The next three don't have any dates to go by but no doubt they were taken in the mid to late 1960s. They all appear to have been taken at the same time. Based on the decor I tend to think this was some sort of Valentine's dinner party though I suppose it could also be someone's anniversary. This couple seems to have had some sort of dinner party at every possible opportunity.
