November 1940. "Lincoln, Nebraska. State capitol in background." Medium format acetate negative by John Vachon for the Farm Security Administration. View full size.
It appears that Mr. Vachon took this picture from a room at the Capital Hotel (still standing, but now a YMCA). Below him is 11th Street. The Barker's shoe store was on O Street.
