Categories: History | North America | World
By Pictolic https://www.pictolic.com/article/life-in-the-us-in-the-50s-rare-photos.html1950's years, often called the Golden era of American history, a time of happiness and prosperity — despite the racial segregation, the cold war and other problems. Colour photography at that time was still a relative novelty, so surviving pictures in color, so interesting to consider.
Most images from this collection and archive, assembled by Denis Previtem, a native of Russia, now living in new York.
