Library of Congress Photos on Flickr

[TominPok]

In case you were looking for another way to waste some time this weekend...

The Library of Congress has just made part their photo collection available on on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/). There are two sets there covering the 1910s and 1930s-40s. Pretty neat stuff. I especially like the old photos of NYC, including Coney Island:

There's more information on the project here (http://www.loc.gov/rr/print/flickr_pilot_faq.html).

This sounds like it is right up my alley. I love looking at old photos.

Thanks, for the info.

I'll have to give those a look. I hope they add a couple more decades too.

Thanks! I looked through a number of them but found the format on Flickr a pain to finding the ones that interest me without having keep going back and forth.
