Wow! Such great pics. Thanks for sharing. Loved the smiling girl…seldom see anyone smiling in that era’s pictures. She was a pretty young lady. That farmer definitely grew some tall corn! 🙂

I love the picture with the guy and his corn too! I have a full grown lemon tree in my backyard that isn’t that tall!

I love these pictures. They so look like the 3rd Season of Fargo on FX! From the first to the last, this could be a line up of cast members from the mobs. Nevermind it’s supposed to be in Kansas City, MO, it’s close enough. The only part of the mobsters missing would be the Jewish ones. Love!
