About the Photos

Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Most were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.

The Most Dangerous Game

The instant I saw this picture, I thought of the short story "The Most Dangerous Game," where a big game hunter from New York is shipwrecked on an island and hunted by a crazed Russian aristocrat the early 1920s. That's a disturbing way to start the morning!
