I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up several batches of slides a while back from Goodwill and eBay. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. There are thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here mainly because I find them an interesting way to look back at the past.
I don't know a whole lot about the ultimate origins of this batch of slides other than they came from Goodwill. Like previous batches, these too often have a date stamped on them that I assume indicates when the film was developed and I believe in most cases should give approximate dating for the photograph itself. So far these seem like mostly vacation photos that were taken in the 1960s and 1970s. I've identified places in Italy, France, Mexico, and Hawaii so far.
All of the photos in this set were processed in July 1975. Based on previous sets with the same date, that means these were all taken in Hawaii.
The first photo was taken from a high vantage point. This may be overlooking Honalulu.
The second and third photos appear to have been taken at the same place. It's possible these are from the Polynesian Cultural Center near Honalulu.
The last photo appears to be an aerial view of Hanauma Bay which is also near Honalulu.

The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.
