Vintage Photos - eBay Set #2 (353-356)

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 I was working on. 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 many 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.

The first two photos were processed in May 1965. Given the Christmas decorations seen in both, I'm guessing these were taken sometime near Christmas 1964. In the first we see the couple featured frequently throughout this set at perhaps their youngest so far...and most intimate. Also of interest is the photo on top of the TV. I'm guessing it's the mother of one half of the couple or the other so that photo was probably taken in the 1940s or earlier.

I'm not sure what that guy is doing in the second photo.

The next two photos were processed in September 1965 and were taken in front of the Sahara Motel in Miami Beach. The sign makes that identification pretty easy. Not sure who the first couple is but we see the usual couple in the last photo.
