Vintage Photos - Goodwill Lot 1 (141-144)

I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up several batches of slides a while back from Goodwill and eBay. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here mainly because I find them an interesting way to look back at the past.

I don't know a whole lot about the ultimate origins of this batch of slides other than they came from Goodwill. Like previous batches, these too often have a date stamped on them that I assume indicates when the film was developed and I believe in most cases should give approximate dating for the photograph itself. So far these seem like mostly vacation photos that were taken in the 1960s and 1970s. I've identified places in Italy, France, Mexico, and Hawaii so far.

All of the photos in this set were processed in August 1970 which, based on previous sets, indicates that they were all taken in Italy, probably in Tuscany.

I can't tell much from the first image other than it appears to have been taken inside a church or basilica.

The second image shows some chairs and umbrellas set up on a rocky coast along with some kids playing on the rocks. Based on where other photos have been taken I'm guessing on the coast not far from Pisa but it could be elsewhere in Italy.

And speaking of Pisa, Google images helped me identify the third image as being of the Piazza dei Cavalieri or Knights Square in Pisa.

While I think I may have the image reversed, Google images was able to identify the last image as being a statue of Michelangelo that is on the facade of the Uffizi gallery in Florence, Italy.
