These Teardrops Aren’t Lonely

The Second International Teardrop Gathering, held June 16-17 at Pioneer Village, a campground in Minden, Neb., was not a convention for people with hay fever, contact lenses or sad stories to tell. Rather, it was a get-together of more than 100 rounded-off camping trailers called teardrops, according to the New York Times.

Teardrop trailers are throwbacks, reminders of a time when people got by on less, because they were flat broke. Teardrops were products of the Great Depression.
