From the BBS: 50 photos, 50 years of peasant life

A tour of 50 photos that "testify to the real life of the peasants over the last 50 years" has been put together by a blogger and reposted on Tianya BBS.  It’s got many great pictures, though unfortunately there are no specific dates or origins on them.  For instance:

Members of a people’s commune put on Mao buttons together

Families in a people’s commune eating in communal dining hall

Pool tables in a field: "I used to play when I was little," writes the author.  "It was 50 cents a game."
