Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.
Combustible Boy links to this remarkable gallery of high-quality color photographs dating from the early 1940s to the 1960s.
Well worth looking at.
UPDATE: The entire photo collection, including a lot of background information, is here. (I will permalink this page.)
