These gorgeous pictures were taken by Julia Vanderveer Rees (1896 — 1997) during her trip around Europe in 1958. Vanderveer Rees, along with her husband John Owen Rees, traveled the world in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, due to Mr. Rees' position as an economic advisor with the United States government.
Take a look at Denmark, Turkey and the Netherlands through these beautiful Kodachrome slides taken by Mrs. Rees in 1958. For more fascinating vintage pictures, make sure to visit gbfernie5's brilliant collections on
