Vintage Photos - eBay Set #1 (65-68)
See the previous post in this series here.
I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up a huge batch of slides a while back. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. These were from Goodwill and eBay (sometimes via estate sales). There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here for posterity.
This set continues a batch of slides that I bought on eBay a while back. I don't have as much to go on as to the ultimate origin of these compared to the previous batch. They came to me from eBay and most likely were picked up at an estate sale by the seller. Most of them seem to be taken in the 1960s and same individuals are included in most of the photos. It looks like there are some that were taken in Miami and some that were taken in New Jersey and perhaps elsewhere. I get the impression that Miami was a vacation spot for this family.
None of the slides in this set had any dates. However, they are all almost certainly from the mid to late 1960s and they all seem to have been taken on the same day (the first two definitely were). The first two feature what are probably the grand-kids over at their grandparents house. This house and its occupants have been featured in a number of photos from previous sets.The next two photos feature pets. The first a cat enjoying the counter top and the second a dog, probably looking for a treat.
The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.

"Love the vintage vibes in this set! 😊 It's fascinating to see these photos from the 1960s, especially with the possible vacation spot theme. I'm curious, do you think you'll be able to learn more about the family who took these pictures? I've been following your previous posts and it's great to see more slides being scanned and shared! 📸 Would love to hear more about your process of scanning and restoring these photos. Also, thanks for linking to the full collection - I'm excited to explore those higher resolution versions 😊"
