I'm looking for a resource that has photos of Aruba from the time period 1930 to 1960. I know about the lago colony website and a few others. Didn't know if maybe someone on the board knows of any other. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Also you can contact CharlieRat on the other board. He grew up in Aruba, his dad worked for Lago and he has been putting together photos for a while now.

I made this blog of pictures for Charlierat http://www.arubapictures.blogspot.com/ . I think I have some other pictures that I didn't put on. I'll look for them and add them to the blog.

Aruba Lisa,

Thank link is stunning. Can't believe how much this place has changed! I absolutely have to write a book set "back in the day" either right around World War 2, or perhaps in the 1950's. Depends on what characters come to me.
