Fabulous Kodachrome Photos Show a Boy Growing up in the 1950s California

John Sievers’s father captured these spectacular Kodachrome photos during his childhood. These slides show people dressed up and participating in some special occasion. John also found pictures of his home in Bellflower, California, Christmas, Thanksgiving, mom, uncle Dwight Sievers, and his cars at the Lions Drag Strip in Long Beach, California, kit flying, family, and road trips.
