I'm absolutely convinced that the "Caricaturist on the Charles Bridge" was there when Marlene and I visited in 2008. We have a wonderful print of the clock hanging in our house.

Brings back fond memories.

I like the older slides, a really interesting contrast from then to now. An amazing lack of cars! People we know who lived there at that "Communist" time, told me that everything was provided, education, a job, a place to live, but you were not allowed to travel outside the communist bloc.
