Not a whole lot of innovation going on with regards to the layouts and decor, was there?

Bldgs were deep but not very wide. I've played in a lot of old time pool halls where the tables were set single file from front to back, up to 7 tables deep.

Houndogs always look like that.

Another FDR election shot, but this time with a Cubs (and Yankees) flare. This is from the 1932 World Series, which was less satisfying for Cubs fans, but still a good campaigning opportunity for Roosevelt.

A crowd in front of an itinerant photographer's tent in Steele (Missouri), August 1938.

I thought it said "internet" photographer. Selfies were harder back in the day.

Another baseball shot. This is Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis enjoying a play in 1923. Love the bash of his hat.

The National Duck Calling Contest was in its second year in this 1937 scene. Cofounder Verne Tindall addresses the crowd, and is being heard on radio stations KARK (Little Rock) and KSD (St. Louis). Looking south from Third and Main Streets, this view illustrates the popularity of the contest even in its infancy. It continues today as part of the Wings Over the Prairie Festival. Courtesy of the Museum of the Arkansas Grand Prairie. (Almyra, Arkansas)

Now that's entertainment!

Looks like they took their duck-calling pretty seriously out there.

Not sure this qualifies as a web all star, but I got an old photo of a logging camp today. Took a picture of it and put in on my flickr page.

If you click through the pic you should be able to get to a larger size. Quite a variety of hats and caps on these fellows.
