Online Pictures from Public Libraries ~ Wednesday, April 09, 2008
A lot of big city and university libraries have impressive photo collections online, that are a gold mine for streetcar researches.
A few notable ones I'm aware of:
- The San Francisco Library
- The Online Archive of California (includes Bancroft Library)
- The Denver Libray Western History Collection
And smaller libraries are getting into the act; check out:
- The Santa Cruz, CA's photography collection; it's well organized and you can skip to streetcar pictures here
I particularly like this picture of a quintessential country trolley (somewhere on the way to Capitola):
