Historic photos on Flickr

The Henry Ford has an extensive collection of historic photos, and we’re excited to make them more accessible on the web.  We are hoping to join the Flickr Commons, but we couldn’t wait to share these pictures with you!  For starters, we’ve put up on our Flickr page a collection of the photos of Jenny Chandler, an early twentieth century woman photojournalist from Brooklyn.  We’d love to know more about the photos and their subjects:  can you help?  Take a look at the collection.

We’ve also posted a set of Ford Model T advertisements on Flickr, and we have a collection of photographs called Image Source up on our own website too.

Please check out our photos on Flickr and tell us what you think, or if you see your great-great grandmother!  What other images would you like to see The Henry Ford share on the web?
