These images, by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information, are some of the only color photographs taken of the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations. The photographs are the property of the Library of Congress and were included in a 2006 exhibit Bound for Glory: America in Color. (via Captured: America in Color from 1939-1943 – Plog Photo Blog)

Pension Office: 1918 This is why I love Shorpy. Be sure to click through to the high-res version. Honestly, the sharpness of that photo (made from a glass negative) is mind-blowing.
