Lots of cool old vintage pics about hats, costumes, and the like here.
Like this one of a Cuban familys' straw hat making business.

Great link, thanks.

Have to wonder what Einstein decided to mark that picture with a stamp right on the face of it.

I'm the dope

I can't get anything but thumbnails. Clicking a pic leads me to a page to purchase the image.


So... you have to buy them to get the larger images as above?

Rosie - can you imagine just smacking a stamp on the front of the picture like that? "This is a valuable addition to our collection. First step: deface it."

lol

Is it your browser Scott? I'm using Firefox and by just clicking on the thumbnails it loads a larger pic.
