Liz,
you've been so kind making better my grandfather's photo....
Now my idea is to choose a few of his images and put them togheter in a frame with his passport and some other things to remember his life in USA....
When you have free time, can you please "work" on these others?

Thank you in advance Liz, and if there is something I can do for you here in Italy feel free to ask me!
Grazie!
Laura

Nuccia,

I agree with you..... Liz is very able doing this "work"... thank you again Liz!

Charlie,
I don know exactly the years of these photos but I can suppose between 1920 and 1927...
My grandfather arrived in USA on April 1917 and came back to Italy in 1926/1927.....
I think the one with the Harvest was taken in the area of Calistoga/St. helena in the napa Valley CA and the one with the mine buildings in Unionville - NV.....
Laura
I have this other ones about the Mining camp....

Great photos Laura! Very Happy The post card may be a 4th of July festivity. That would be our holiday celebration of independence day. It is still celebrated with parades during the day and fireworks at night. Just a wild guess based on all the American flags in the picture.
