We yanks tend to see everything in terms of our own experience. A bad habit to be sure.

Some nice classic early Kodachromes here:

Fascinating, thanks for posting Paul.

Agreed.  That article mentions Charles Cushman.  He shot A LOT of
Kodachrome.  http://webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/cushman/

I was a bit unhappy about the designation of "pre-war" to a few of the photos. Knowing (sad git that I am) that the Boeing Stratoliner did not enter service until late 1940, I managed to find the Cushman photo that is in the presentation.

October 1941.

Then I remembered that WWII didn't start until December 7th 1941. What a dumbass.
