public domain pictures
To be more precise…pictures owned by the people of the USA.
The Library of Congress has put a whole boatload of pictures up on Flikr. And by boatload, I mean around 3100 pictures.
Two sets, so far. One of color photos from the 30s and 40s and one set of news photos from the 1910s. Looks like a lot of baseball players in that set. At least the first 30 or so. I’m going to have a look through and see if any are attributed to my great-grandfather.
Anyway, thought this was an interesting intersection of the blogosphere and gummint and “art.” enjoy.

That’s so cool. I love looking at photos. I’ll have to get back to it when I have time to enjoy them all. Thanks for that.
