I found an interesting site called Square America which contains a large collection of vintage photographs. These photographs are part of a larger work called This Is My Country, called "An Epic Survey, Rendered In Photographs, Home Movies, Audio Recordings, And Other Assorted Ephemera, Of Everyday Life In These United States And Of The Ways And Customs Of The American People c.1900-c.1976 (A Work In Progress)."

The pictures at the site range from funny to serious, heart-warming to bizarre. I picked out a few of the pictures that I thought were funny and added some captions to them below.

If you have any captions of your own that you'd like to add for any of these, let's hear them. Come on, make me laugh. ~posted by Daisy

Excuse us, do you know where we might be able to purchase

Every other family on the block played ring toss in the back yard,
but Jimmy's dad thought kid toss was more fun.

What a fashion faux pas!! Everyone knows you shouldn't
wear a grey belt with black shoes!
