Vintage New York

For the curious, the nostalgic, the ardently interested, and the consummate errant aesthete, an absorbing collection of vintage New York city photographs from the early 1900′s. They’re so tactile, so soft. And they evoke this mechanistic allure that makes you wonder if future-people look back on our contemporary cities with equally-widened eyes. If you ever wondered or imagined how life was once lived, or how places and people once looked, you will want to see Manhattan in all its photographic brilliance here and for the notoriously dissatisfied, even more of the world of black and white as shown here.
