Of the 145,000 photographs made by photographers employed by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) in the 1930s and 1940s, relatively few were reproduced widely and most of those iconic documentary images frame the Depression in black-and-white images of dispossessed rural people. Still, close to 2,000 frames were shot with the relatively new technology: 4 by 5 Kodachrome slide film. via fairtradegothic
