Just wanted to recommend this wonderful site with historical photographs taken in the US (theyre in high resolution).

I've been checking it out for months, and you'll be doing so as well (from now on)

Fantastic, thanks Jan!

I loved one of the comments on a depression-era photo of a mother and kids dressed in rags: "The picture is of far higher quality than existed in that era. It's obviously a fake."
