Has anyone else gone back to see the site where one of your photo/PC/cards was taken?
Conor, I have used old photos of that same exact location, to help identify where Edward Curtis' studio was. It was in the Alaska building on the first floor. A lot of history in that area - it was on the outside edge of the great fire back in the late 1800's. I wrote an article about it, but haven't published it yet - kinda very, very esoteric
