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.

This picture looks like it came from an entirely different world.

 

Not to worry sir..

I have years of experience in surgically removing ferrets from the upper lips of balding middle aged men. When you wake up it will all be over.

 

Something familiar here.
