A recent inquiry, which I will write about later, sent me to the Library of Congress‘ Farm Services Administration digital archive, looking at images. I’ve posted a few before. This is an amazing archive of photographs by some of the greatest photographers in twentieth-century America. It’s truly a bottomless pit for the curious browser. Here are a few that showed up when I searched the archive using “Ozark” as the filter term:
Children of Ozarks Farmer – Missouri, 1940
Ozark Children, 1940
Ozark Farmer and Family, 1940
Ozark Mountain Girls, 1940
William Stamper and Wife, Who Have Lived in the Ozarks for More Than Fifty Years, 1936
Rehabilitation Client at Spinning Wheel, 1935
