You're on the home stretch. Just hang in there a little bit longer.

I'm completely obsessed with the Library of Congress' page on Flickr. Anyone else who used to frequent their old site format will immediately be taken by the convenience of seeing all of these amazing historical images so easily. The color images from the 1940-50's are especially vivid. Check it out.

I love this image.

On a sidenote, these images are free to use for almost whatever purpose. Some students in graduate school put on a "Cake Show" using images from the Library of Congress printed on cakes... it was delicious.
