Dorothea Lange took some great images from that era. Hers were a bit less positive though.

I recognized one location!
I thought to myself, "That looks like one of the old mines outside of Ouray", darned if I wasn't right!

Great pictures, the Carbon Black Pictures remind me of the area I grew up in, Fortunately for everyone they closed a lot of them down after the war.
