Somebody bought over 5000 slides from a Mountain Brook (Birmingham), Alabama estate for $150 and posted a number of them on Flickr

This guy had a high paying job and traveled on business. He went to Europe 6 times, Cuba, Hawaii, Japan, and many US trips. Slides include sporting events, inaugeration parades, people, travel, World's Fairs and so much more.
He's posted 177 of them, from the '50s and '60s, including many national parks, '64 Words Fair, '65 Seattle, '61 Idlewild Airport and much more, including a graduation at Oberlin College in '59. The cars and street clothes are cool and the quality of the pictures is befitting someone that can afford an expensive camera.
