Photo Resource - Brooklyn in 1974

This was posted on Facebook, but it is an amazing source for photos of real people, something that is very difficult to find when doing research! Thank you Heather!

This is what Brooklyn looked like in the summer of 1974

I personally find costume research frustrating because it focuses on fashion and ideals rather than what people actually wear. But thanks to the interwebs, we are getting more and more sources with real people in real life situations. And, IMHO it doesn't get any more real than Brooklyn!
