  Isn't it interesting that we see pictures of German and Italian immigrants but no Japanese? A real comment on the times.

  This is an amazing portrait. The details of the skin on the face, is astounding.

An American town and its way of life, Southington, Conn. The Memorial Day parade moving down the main street. The small number of spectators is accounted for by the fact that the town's war factories did not close. The town hall is in the left foreground.
