About This Photo:
Needless to say, I did not take any of the photos in the Historic Photos area of this web site. However, I have been fascinated — possibly obsessed — with these amazing hi-resolution images ever since I stumbled upon the photo blog site Shorpy. Even though these photos are more than a century old, taken long before today’s hi-definition video technology, they are so sharp that they seem more like portals into a bygone world than mere static photography.
