Photos from the day when US government nuked Mississippi, 1964
Mississippi’s Tatum Salt Dome in rural Lamar County near Hattiesburg was the site of two nuclear test explosions in the mid-1960s.
The Salmon test on Oct. 22, 1964 and the Sterling test on Dec. 3, 1966, were conducted to help determine whether and how nuclear test yields could be disguised through “decoupling” and how well such blasts could be detected. #projectdribble

The 8 legged dolls!
Very rare, this kind of wooden doll dates back to the 19th century and presents a very innovative design for the time: a leg wheel allows the doll to "walk" when pushed to the ground.
Originally the doll was dressed in a long dress hiding the mechanism, so only 2 feet of walking were visible at once!
Cringe but Genius, isn't it?
