Auntie Pam in Italy, late fifties

My aunt Pamela, who died of viral pneumonia in 1969, shown here on a tour of Italy in about 1959. I can't guess which city - if not Rome it could be Florence. She's in the front row with the plaid dress. A funny lady who I miss today. View full size.

Piazzale Michelangiolo

This is taken from the Piazzale Michelangiolo, a very scenic place where locals and tourists alike gather to picnic and eat in the restaurants.

Firenze

You can see the Ponte Vecchio in the upper left and the tower of the Palazzio Vecchio in the top center. This was just a few years before a terrible flood damaged much of what you see here.

Florence, definitely

As also seen in a million tourist photos and the Karmann Javelin brochure:
