I came across the Old Picture of the Day Blog the other day. Stunning pictures and interesting captions for the rest of the story.
Some recent ones:
Jan. 26- A Dorothy Lange photo of an old general store, gas station.
Jan. 28- inside of a general store from the 30s
Jan. 30- USS Monitor shortly after battle with CSS Virginia, complete with dents from shells.
Feb. 1-- a couple resting under a tree after a 4th of July picnic in Vale, Oregon.
Feb. 2- 1937 of two men carrying luggage down a road near LA. What really makes the picture is a sign saying "Next time...take the train...and Relax" showing a guy stretched out on a recliner.
And, if you go back a bit later than Jan. 26th, you will see a very interesting train wreck.
Well worth checking out and on my favorites now.
