Walking through a small street in Florence, this is what greeted us (I took this photo when we left). The bounty was a pile of newspapers from the 60′s, which prompted this photo. As M. put it:

We were walking down a smaller side street and saw two girls crouched next to a couple of piles of yellowed newspapers. We walked over to have a look and found they were copies of La Nazione, a Florence-based newspaper, from about 1963-1965. Someone had just thrown them out next to a dumpster. Even though they were in Italian, we dug through the piles to see what important news we could find. I realized that the piles should have included news on Kennedy's assassination, but if that paper was in there, someone had already taken it. There was a paper though about the 2nd anniversary of his death, which we took, along with the paper showing Johnson winning over Goldwater and the news that America had developed a new antimissile. As we looked through the papers, others would stop to see what was going on, and then they'd get drawn into looking through them too. One guy just looked on and said a couple of times in amazement "La storia!" ("History!").
