Housewives Waiting for the Fishing Boats

History in Colour@nova rex24
The Library of Congress catalogues this scene as housewives waiting for fishing boats to come in at Frederiksted, Saint Croix, in December 1941. Jack Delano made the image as a colour slide for the U.S. Office of War Information; the catalog record identifies the digital file as a copy from the original slide. The FSA/OWI Color Photographs collection is in the public domain.1
