  Bound for Glory: America in Color
[blockquote][em][a href="http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/boundforglory/glory-home.html"]Bound for Glory[/a]: America in Color is the first major exhibition of the little known color images taken by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information. These vivid scenes and portraits capture the effects of the Depression on America's rural and small town populations, the nation's subsequent economic recovery and industrial growth, and the country's great mobilization for World War II.[/em][/p][/blockquote][em]

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.
