The Library of Congress has a whole set of colored photographs from the '30s and '40's on their Flickr Stream. I love the fabrics and the background. What a sweet family.

so cool to see government using web 2.0.
it’s time they came into the 21st century with everyone else.
Wow!
You can look through the mother lode of photos from the LOC’s collection in the digital collections section of their site
http://www.loc.gov/rr/print/catalog.html
It’s a bit overwhelming if you don’t narrow it down by artist… you might want to search out Walker Evans, Russell Lee, Margaret Bourke-White or other photographers who worked for the WPA (Works Progress Administration) in the WWII era.
You can even order prints of the images through the LOC for reasonable prices. Happy hunting!

What an amazing photo stream, thanks for bring it to our attention! And LOL @ Napoleon Dynamite, so true MMW 😀
