Palm Beach, Florida, circa 1904

Palm Beach, Florida, circa 1904. It looks a bit different than today.

This one, showing a Camp near Effie, Minnesota, 1937, is close to home. I have been there and my father worked for the CCC in camps like this around that time and in that area. Could be he is in that picture or at least people he knew.

There are a lot of pictures here, perhaps your home town is included.

Yeah, maybe those idiots in the picture should lean a little harder on that bowed-out rickety-azz fence...

Cool link. I love looking at the old pictures like that.

It looks like Joe has a 1911 in his belt, I don't think the picture would be from 1904 if so.

Another interesting observation: "Alligator Joe" needs to change his name to "Crocodile Joe"...
