AMP reminds us that, as surfers of the interweb, we have FREE digital access to the entire Library of Congress Prints & Photographs Online Catalog.

Instead of Phoogling, maybe we could do some Phlibrary-of-congressing? Just a thought.

Search the catalog here. Also worth pointing out is that you can access high resolution TIFF files of most all of the images, which you can then make your own digital prints from. Alternately, if you’d prefer you can purchase actual prints of your favorites for as littles as $25 for an 8″ x 10″. Incredible.

    Of particular note - they’ve got the FSA/OWI photographs in the archives.
