Photographs I've gleaned from flea markets, junk shops and sometimes ebay. The cheaper the better. Anything with a story that can be extracted from hand written notes, location research, local histories, census records......anything. A small band of fellow enthusiasts worldwide have helped me with many of these. Of course there are always mysteries that defy research, but there's even a story inside these. All images can be viewed at super-size on Flickr.

Two picnics
The top one may have come from the same album as the two photos in my last entry. The bottom one is a beach party. Note the copper kettle. You often see kettles and tea cups in old picnic photos, but no sign of how they boiled the water.
