So I'v recently gotten into collecting high quality scans of vintage photographs. I've found some sites like this (http://www.doctormacro1.info/) and that kept me entertained for a while but I want some more. :o Anyone know any good sites where I can find some of these?

Example: My current background is:

Here you go. (http://mt15.quickshareit.com/share/vintagephotosf3070.zip) You should be able to right click and Save Linked File. The file is approximately 25.4MB.



Maybe we can get a thread going of people posting their favorite vintage photos. *High quality of course*

Thats the only one I've found that has an archive of pictures. I picked up all the others at random places on the internet. Hence this thread, I would like to find more.

I really like the San Fran shot, and the old Maxwell advertisement. :)
