i am SO glad i found this gem today, i LOVE this stuff. perhaps someone here’s grandparents or great grandparents would love to see these, but i am def captivated by them myself. for some of the pix:“The clarity and quality of these photos are stunning. I’d expect it to be from a very expensive present day camera. All we ever see from this era is blur, grain, and black and white. It’s awkward looking at such quality but knowing it really was from that time period”
I saw a site a while ago with TONS of pics from the civil war era and beyond. It was really neat actually… had pics of slave trading “businesses” and all that stuff.
Amazing. I really like that steel mill photo. If you are into steel mills and such check out this site. The pics are not old, but the subject matter is.
