If you haven't found it yet, Shorpy.com is a great site for period historical pictures and scenery. Most are in black and white, but there is a wealth of detail and stuff.

Thank you Stu. I have just spent 4 very enjoyable hours on this site, and found things that I would never have found elsewhere. I even found a great picture of a watermelon car that one of my buddies is modeling right now.
I highly recommend it for the modelers from the 20's and 30's. (Doctorwayne). Thumbsup Thumbsup Thumbsup
Thanks again for sharing.
