NEW / OLD FROM THE VINTAGRAPH VAULTS >> SELF DECAPITATION
All that effort on the part

All that effort on the part of all parties just to bring a little civilization to the wilds of New Mexico.
What is astounding is just how much things have changed in a single generation. The experiences of these people pictured are so removed from our own, I wonder how many of us can even pretend to relate.
