    FSA Color Photos From 1940s

    The Farm Security Administration had photographs taken across America to document the effects of the Depression on farms and towns.

    We are probably all familiar with many of the black & white photographs taken by these photographers.

    Thanks Jim, that was a fun trip back in time.
    There wasn’t much in Pie Town, New Mexico in 1941 and there’s still not much there today.
