Recently did a mini-series of photos recreating a couple Golden Age era photos buildings from around town:

Golden Era wool mill maintenance workshop. All machinery is belt driven, wooden flooring.

Can’t wait for industrial museums to reopen, Zeche Zollern just finished their Jugendstil machine house when everything has been shut down.

Thanks! I'd love to do more, but Golden Era photos of my area are extremely difficult to come by. There's a few more I have available from a book I was able to purchase of old postcard photos of my county, but most of the photos in there showed areas that have since been developed beyond recognition. The reference photos I have here I took from the local historical society webpage.

I do recall a reference book of my county available from my high school library that had a ton of great photos in there, as well as town history, but I've never been able to track down another copy.

Of course, right after I wrote this, I found a large cache of photos on the local historical society Facebook page...

This is a sidewalk in Missouri:

Although I should clarify: This is part of a welcoming station for tourists, so naturally it's a bit more beauteous than the rest of the state's typical sidewalks.

Oh, just a side question for the photographers out there: Do we not have a thread devoted to sky pictures? I searched, but didn't find anything- but didn't want to start a new thread if one already exists.
