My Uncle Frank sent me this link today, its pretty cool, who knew they had 4x5 Kodachrome, and a special one of a kind machine to process it back in the 1940s. Love these 4x5 WWII era transparencies of women factory workers in full make up without PPE (personal protection equipment). World War II changed a lot of things and pushed the womens rights movement dramaticatlly forward, now if other parts of the world can just catch up, and give rights and freedoms to 50% of their own populations.

Here is a 4x5 Kodachrome transparency by the famous documentary depression era photographer Russell Lee. I love the harsh direct flash look, something I can acheive with the Banrama 4x5 camera and flash.
September 1940. Jack Whinery, Pie Town, New Mexico, homesteader, with
his wife and the youngest of his five children in their dirt-floor
dugout home. Whinery homesteaded with no cash less than a year ago and
does not have much equipment; consequently he and his family farm the
slow, hard way, by hand. Main window of their dugout was made from the
windshield of the worn-out car which brought this family to Pie Town
from West Texas. 4x5 Kodachrome transparency by Russell Lee, Farm
Security Administration.
