I'm rebuilding one of the store fronts on Sweethome Chicago and need a window display to suit a 1930s general store.
Does anyone know of anythng on-line that I can use?
Thanks
Jon

We can visit the Library of Congress in Washington DC online. I think we won't hold those troubles in 1776 against you.
Go to www.loc.gov
Then click of American Memory and get a menu of a dozen and a half sub-categories.
Click on War, Military, which opens more sub-sub-categories
Then click on "Depression Era to World War II- FSA/OWI photos 1935-1945" You then have access to 160,000 black and white images from mid-1930s, about 1600 color images toward end of war.

And one I haven't looked at much--

I found exactly what I was looking for. I had already printed off a load of pics from the depression era, just didn't thik to look in the coloured photos as well - D'oh!
