SANTA MONICA 28 March 1964

SANTA MONICA 28 March 1964, a photo by Lance & Cromwell on Flickr.

Those of us who were of that 60s generation might vaguely recall evangelists. Who among us listened? Whatever his reason, he made the photograph a "one-in-a-million" type of photo and Lance was there to capture that moment in time. It is a photo that speaks volumes in the history of the 60s generation lifestyles. Really, upon looking at the young women and young men, they were a very peaceful and docile group. What a great photograph.

I am particularly fond of these photos because this area of Santa Monica was one of my old playgrounds when I first arrived in California in 1959. Eventually, after spending 5 years in the U.S.Navy, I returned to this area and found it slightly changed, but still a fun place to reside for awhile. My thanks to Lance for permitting me to feature these priceless photographs of a time long gone, an era with some fond memories. These are much more than snapshots, they are images of a history of the 60s generation.
