The Oxford Project, I’ve been back in time

Fascinating, The Oxford Project. Residents of a small US town in Iowa are photographed 21 years apart.

In the spring and summer of 1984, Peter Feldstein used a red marker to make a sign announcing that he wanted to take free portraits of everyone in Oxford, Iowa (pop. 673). Twenty-one years later, Peter set up his camera again. Some of the original residents had died and some had moved away, but a surprising number still lived in Oxford.
