Library of Congress Photostream

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

I have added the Library of Congress to my flickr contacts. I love their photostream! As of today, they have over 5,080 wonderful vintage photographs uploaded. My favorites are tagged rosietheriveter (i.e., Rosie the Riveter).

The Librarian (1947)

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

I have an affection for old, retro stuff. It’s funny to watch these old movies to see how much things have changed (and stayed the same!)

The Librarian

I cannot seem to get the movie to upload to Wordpress. :(

The original post of the film can be found on the Internet Archive.
