Yuma, Arizona is my home town. I am working on a virtual 1960s tour article of Yuma if I can find enough images of this town during that time. Growing up in the  west, I remember rodeos and western style parades, playing in a giant sandbox,  otherwise known as the Sonoran Desert, the large vistas and, of course, the  Colorado River. This should be exciting. Do you have a city you would like to tour in 1960? Let me know. Don’t need to stop with just Yuma! Stay tuned.

This is an update, September 25, 2015:

Unfortunately, I am unable to find enough images of Yuma during the mid-century to do a tour. I have quite a few images of the mid-century hotels along 4th Avenue that were built when traffic coming from the east had to go through Yuma to get to California and before the construction of a bridge over the Colorado River carrying Interstate 8 traffic. I can post what pictures I have, but many mid-century buildings and their stories will not be made available as a tour. Obviously, many images from this period exist. However, since I live in Phoenix these days, I must retrieve them from the cloud where they are not numerous. If I were doing a history of Yuma, then the feasibility of doing a lengthy article would be much more likely, especially due to the intense interest in the old west. The only possibility of creating an article of Yuma as a mid-century tour would be for me or someone to actually go down to Yuma, take pictures of what is still down there and then compose an article. This maybe possible sometime in the future.

Here are some of the pictures and media I have collected:
