I really just don't know where the best places would be for me to look for this kind of thing. Certain dealers or certain locations? That is kind of my issue at the moment. Where is the best place to find this type of stuff.
Thanks for the help so far.

Start by going to your local newspaper or library.
In addition to having a lot of their own stock, often the stock they have might have been donated by a local photographer or family. There could be names associated with the photos and you can trace them back.
When I worked for a newspaper, we had some photos of an air base that were donated and I was able to locate pictures of Howard Hughes that way.
As well, simply ask friends and neighbors. My guess is there isn't a central location of this type of photo but you would be able to build a nice one over time.
