This entire collection--10,000 digitized images--is worth playing with. Want to know what 5th Avenue in NY looked like back when? (I.e., before 1920, mostly.) This is for you.
How come I never knew that alligator pears were avocados?
When you read the menus from Victorian and Edwardian times you understand why people like Diamond Jim Brady were the size they were, but how did anyone live past 40?
