It's exciting to see how much interest sites like these have generated, and many of us are working together to use technology to bring more of the past within reach. Thanks for your great blog!

Now if they would be able to come up with a way to do street view, and have a re-constructed or time-line based view of these buildings from the street, THAT would be amazing. Regardless, this is a great resource for archival location photos. That is awesome!

I like your posts they have been helpful in my book research. You should check out the Verdian Library Collection of the California newspapers. It's too cool.
