See the previous post in this series here.
I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up a huge batch of slides a while back. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. These were from Goodwill and eBay (sometimes via estate sales). There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here for posterity.
This set continues a large batch of slides that originally came from an estate sale and appear to have belonged to a locally well known photographer from the Spokane Washington area named Leo Oestreicher, or perhaps a friend or family member of his. These slides contain some landscape and portrait photos but also a lot of typical snapshot photos. Here's an article on him from 1997 which is the only info I have found on him: http://www.spokesman.com/stories/1997/jan/04/photos-of-a-lifetime-museum-acquisition-of-leo/
The first photo in this set is dated July 28th, 1957 and is labeled "Sunset at Farragut". I'm assuming Farragut, Tennessee. The second photo is not labeled or dated but was probably also taken in the late 1950s. It shows a man sitting in a chair with a drink. The third photo shows three individuals sitting down at some kind of formal dinner. It is not labeled or dated but was also likely taken in the late 1950s. The last photo is a macro of a flower, also likely taken in the late 1950s.
