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.

was a world-weary underground rock star in europe and japan. had cult following in new york. one day, i decided that putting every episode of The Jack Benny radio show in order was more fulfilling. living the life of an old retired man by the ocean at age 26 and collecting and appreciating those moving days of yesteryear. thanks shorpy.
