Every so often, I look at the
Huntington Digital Library's Palmer Conner Collection to see what's new, or what I haven't noticed before.
A favorite:

Great photo caption: "This is 221 South Bunker Hill Avenue. Built between 1888 and 1894. Attributed to Frederick Sparr or Judge Halton. The Mattachine Society was in part born here in 1953; it was where Tony Reyes and Don Slater lived. Demolished circa 1963." Also love the "Coming or Going" Studebaker and the gold bathtub Packard. Just a great picture--dated Apr 20, 1957.
