NEW FROM THE VINTAGRAPH VAULTS • YOU MEAN A WOMAN CAN OPEN IT?
News Photo Archive
4x5 negatives retired from the archives of U.S. newspapers, acquired and scanned by Shorpy. So far the bulk of the images seem to be from either Chicagoland or Columbus, Georgia. There are also dozens of car-accident photos from Oakland, California, which have their own sub-gallery (Signal 30).
