Gooooood Monday Morning to you all. We are going to be looking at a neat set of pictures this week. The picture above was taken in 1940 near Lexington, Kentucky. The men are picking Burley Tobacco. The thing you notice is that the picture was in color. Normally, you would expect pictures from the era to be in Black and White, but this is a very early example of color photography. Wonder if anyone out there ever picked tobacco?Monday, March 15, 2010
