Topic: Old photos of your town

[Clive]

If you enjoy looking at old photos dating back 50 - 100 years, then you will almost certainly find a collection from your town in this website.  It's a shame that they have overprinted each one so heavily with their logo as I feel it spoils the pictures quite a bit.

Yeah, it's a shame about the logos, but it does stop people pinching the pics!

That's a brilliant site.  Shame about the logo though.

Hookstar.  I've been watching that Keele site, since I heard  it mentioned on Radio 4 last week.  Hope we don't have to wait much longer.

Works fine for me.

Works fine for me.  

Still doesnt for me

The searchable catalogue will be launched in the future at a time when we can more accurately predict sustainable levels of demand and install appropriately sized hardware and software to fulfil this. We apologise for the inconvenience

[Clive]

Oh I see what you mean!  :'(   My 'umblest apologies Hook.

While I have managed to view some of the pictures by clicking on "Image Shop", I certainly can't find five million.  Seems a little silly launching something before it works.    Perhaps it's sponsored by Microsoft.
