Vintage Photography

I dream so much of the day away looking at this website. It's a collection of vintage photos that various vintage photography enthusiasts contribute to. Some of the photo selections are scans from personal collections of hard copies, while others are thematic collections found on flickr.com. The time periods span from the dawn of photography to approximately the 1970's, maybe even 1980's. (If you call that vintage, then I guess I am vintage, too!) The topics range from movie stars, to war, to leisure activities, fashion, and family portraits. I love the eerie looks that some of the subjects have, especially from the early and pre-20th century. Some invoke deep emotional responses, but they are all really fun and inspirational.
