Taking a break. Flo, Aline, Joe & Alice. 1939 World's Fair, NYC
My mom (r) with members of her tour group. She was 22 and this was her first time out of New Orleans.

Love it! Your mom's entire world's fair album is so interesting to look through!

Thanks, Alan. I was tickled when I found them in an old suitcase a few years ago, the '39 Fair being such an iconic symbol of a world that was on the brink of chaos.

Was she pleased you found it? Traveling so far from home must have been quite an adventure for her!

She was pleased that I enjoyed finding them but unfortunately her vision over the last five years has declined to such an extent that she can make out very little even when viewed at high resolution on the computer. Years ago she told me what a great adventure the tour was but today her memory of it is no more than a blur. 'Tis an evil reward for attaining advanced old age.

Sorry, Rick, I didn't know that she was struggling with memory issues. She always looks so beautiful and on point in your photos.
