Even though it looks like it may not have enough detail, have you tried louping the calendars on the wall on the left of the tobacco store photograph? I've been able to determine locations that way.

I have a few Chicago-area photographs in my collection, but my focus is more rural living and storefronts in the 1870s - 1920. That's great that you have a photograph of your grandfather working the railroad. As you know, photographs like that aren't very common, so it must be a real treat to have one of a family member. What's the date of that one?

Wow, that's some fantastic stuff! Yes, you and I have very similar taste! Any information about the location of the tobacco store or railroad workers?

I'll second that! What a killer find!

I'd love to see what you have! I'll try to scan a few from my personal collection.

Thanks! I also collect photographs of store interiors, advertising and signage. I never find good stuff like this cheap at flea markets... only piles and piles of unidentified CDV and cabinet card portraits. I attend multiple photograph and paper ephemera shows each year looking for material. The above photographs are my for-sale inventory... I haven't yet scanned my own collection.

Original mounted/cabinet photographs from 1870 - 1910. American occupational and storefront photographs have been a big interest of mine over the past few years. Pardon the silly watermarks... I put them on there when I show photos in other forums or sell photos so that unscrupulous thieves don't lift the images to sell on eBay.

Set of Japanese posters (1972 - 1974) ... three from the Female Convict Scorpion series and the fourth from Lady Snowblood. I have half-sheets as well.

1950s "exotica"-themed LPs. I started collecting these in the mid-90s. Love the music and the covers.

Looking for low-grade (around VG) of Strange Tales 167, 168 and Nick Fury 1, 2, 3, 5 and Cap 110,111,113 and Tower of Shadows 1. Looking for complete with covers and no writing. Cheap is the name of the game... I have nice copies, I just need readers for someone else. All the Marvel reprints are garbage. Thanks! Paul

Off to eBay.... PM if interested.
