Old Pictures is a huge archive of photography dating back to the mid 19th century. The menu is a little hard to find, located between ads on the left side. This picture is called Suspected Lincoln Conspirator, from the collection entitled Abraham Lincoln Assassination. I could spend hours browsing these photos. Link -via Fark

I love these kind of pictures. Old timey pics are so rich in detail and antiquity. :)

What a spectacular site! I have already sent it on to friends and labeled it as "the gift that keeps on giving". There so much to go through here. So far, I like the early color photos of folks in the landscapes and the everyday captures of people. Lets hope 2012 doesn't wipe out all of human history.

Thank you for that link! I now have a lovely old hand-tinted photo of a Tyrolean castle as my desktop wallpaper.
