This is an amazing collection of vintage vacation photos I came across while surfing the internet.
Taken by an elderly Lillian Seymour, an abandoned scrapbook of these photos was recently found on the streets in Cambridge, Massachusets. Included in the set are photos of the New York World's Fair in 1964, Expo 67, and Expo's 1968 follow-up: Man and His World.
Not much is known about Lillian Seymour, and this mystery intrigues me.
These photos are amazingly sophisticated for a little old lady on vacation...!
Of course, Lillian would never see the invention of the internet. I can't help but wonder, though, what she would say if she knew her pictures would one day be seen all across the world...
