Pie Town and Beyond

From the Denver Post's Photo Blog:

These images, by photographers of the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information, are some of the only color photographs taken of the effects of the Depression on America’s rural and small town populations. The photographs are the property of the Library of Congress and were included in a 2006 exhibit Bound for Glory: America in Color.

Several of the photographs are from Pie Town, New Mexico. A couple years ago Smithsonian magazine published an article on these Photos and the current Pie Two, Savoring Pie Town. I am not sure that I would have remembered this for any other town, but how can you forget a place called Pie Town.
