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.

Willow witching

This photo makes me think of divining rods (or witching rods) that are used to find water. It strikes me that the ladies were looking for something other than water - maybe a frog to kiss, or prince charming. I hope they found what they were looking for. View full image.

How odd! This one is dying for a caption contest. All those shifty-eyed ladies staring at the camera freak me out!
