living room

Rummaging in mom's basement we came across a box of old slides from my dad's older brother. Uncle Warren lived in the Ozarks and ran a local newpaper. I think this must have been his living room. I love that old telephone! I set the slide on a lightbox and used my macro lens to take a picture of it, then edited in Lightroom and Silver Efex. I think I'll try to digitize a few more, though this is by far my favorite.
fantastic!

What a treasure to find! No date on it anywhere - trying to remember when those phones were no longer used. I'd guess this was sometime around the late 40's noting the tv. Reminds me of Bill's grandmother's living room.

THis is so cool, I'm wondering if the telephone was old at the time. The wallpaper looks very 70's to me.

What an absolute wonder to find this! I love it. Love the tv and radio and that slightly wayward cushion. Super find.

The telephone is quite an anachronism here. Good for you for rescuing and digitizing the slides —at least some of them.
