Marriott Hotel, March 1973
Not sure of the city, my guess is Chicago....Girl with Headphones
She seems very focused on her studies....Pick Me!!!
This group of kids from the 70's look excited to be in school. This slide is from an extensive set of school pictures from November 1971. Perhaps the photographer worked in education. Maybe working on an advanced degree in eduction....Multimedia - 70's Style
When I first held this slide up the the light, I thought the kids were using an one of the original Mac computers, but that is just my bias. It is interesting that this use multimedia-based eduction from 43 years ago is very similar to something we would see in a classroom in 2014. ...City View, 1973
View towards suburbs. City unknown....Biplane in Flight
I believe this is a Sopwith Camel. The photo is from October, 1975 - one of the eclectic slides from Lot 1....It is 5:05 Somewhere

Students hard at work learning the basics of capitalism. ...Using the Abacus
Learning the basic of arithmetic using an abacus. ...Lunchtime
My son thought this lunch looked disgusting. To me, this looks like a much more healthy and substantial meal than schoolkids get today.
A quick Google search for Koontz Dairy indicates this may have been taken in the Baltimore area.
...Reflections
This beautiful picture is the first in a series from April 1976 taken on a tour of Japan....Woman Sweeping
Next in the series from the Lot1 photographer's April 1976 trip to Japan...Art Lessons
Young students hard at work making art....Riverside Cemetery
Stark white grave markers, weeping willows and the river bank. It all adds up to a very scenic cemetery....Selfie
Is this the man behind the 500+ slides in Lot 1? We may never know, but it is a fun selfie from April 1973....Kinkaku-ji
I believe this beautiful building is the "Temple of the Golden Pavilion" - Kinkaku-Ji in Kyoto, Japan. Source: Wikipedia....St. Basil's
St. Basil's in Moscow, with the Kremlin on the left....Pre-School Music
Looks like a fun activity in this picture from November 1971. Gotta love the 70's fashions, these are some hip kids....Emerald Green Rice Paddies
Vibrant green radiates in this slide from November, 1976. The people behind Lot 4 were on a trip to China at that time. We will see a few more slides from that trip in the coming weeks....Garden Tour
And while the people behind Lot 4 were in China in 1976, the photographer(s) from Lot 1 where in Japan. This from a set of April, 1976 slides from that trip. Likely near Kinkakuji, Kyoto, Japan....35mm Dash Cam
I may be extending gender stereotypes to declare the photographer a man ( but we do have evidence), but this is the kind of shot that a man would take: Of a bridge, while driving. ...Making Time
I read an article the other day that mentioned school kids today don't learn how to tell time from an analog clock. Elementary age children in 1971 did, as this slide shows. ...Japanese Architecture
A closeup shot of Japanese architecture in this April 1976 slide from Lot 1....Traditional Japanese House
A view inside a traditional wood and paper Japanese house. Another in the set of slides from April 1976....School Lunch
This lovely young lady is enjoying her lunch, and getting some spaghetti sauce on her blouse....Tugboat
Looks like this boat was shot while the photographer was on a ferry. ...Field Trip
Not sure about the red hats, but this group of kids look like they are on a field trip to a museum....Capital of What?
Any idea where this building is located? It looks like some sort of capitol building....Sopwith Camel
Another view of the biplane first shown here....View From the Tarmac
The white plane in this photo is eluding my best efforts at identification. It is not a Harbin Y-12, not a de Haviland Dash 7, not an Ilyushin. Any ideas?...Closeup of Kinkaku-ji
Close up view of the famous Deer Garden Temple (Kinkaku-ji) in Kyoto, Japan. We were first shown this beautiful building a few weeks ago....River Barges
River barges. No location indicated on the slide, but this looks like a mid-western US city....Waterfall

Imagine the scene - friends over for dinner, retire to the den in the basement to look at slides: "And this is a squirrel we saw on a tree...". Photo sharing wouldn't recover until Instagram....Courtyard
Traditional Japanese style architecture on display in this picture. Based on the dates, this is likely in Kyoto - similar to the images first seen here....Filmstrip Library
A filmstrip library, on what looks like a mobile ("Bookmobile") library. ...Pivoting Bridge
A pivoting bridge. Shot on the same river trip as the Riverside Cemetery in April, 1973....Soup for Lunch
I showed this picture to my grade school kids and they thought it both looked disgusting and looked better than their school lunch. Looks pretty good to me....Lady Rose
