Hi Kenneth
Can you point me to the websites you go to for your photos? There are many sites that are dedicated to and have photos of particular railroads, but I want photos of America 1950's. I am looking for photos of streets, sidewalks, gas stations, shops, restaurants, apartments, diners, markets, billboards, buildings, etc, etc. I'm looking for cityscapes and details scenes I can build.
Thanks in advance!
Barry
I suggest you check out the famous Cushman photo archives maintained online by Indiana University. This is a huge collection of color slides from the 1930s to around 1970 or so. This guy shot the ordinary stuff and I think you'll find it interesting. It takes some looking around to find stuff

Another source of course is old Life and Look magazines from the era.
