There are many ways to view and think about history, but sometimes just seeing is best. And for the past 100 years or so, a most accidental form of historical record has been built: postcards intended for tourists.

Sometimes, it's amazing how little things have changed. Sometimes, nothing is the same (and, indeed, a site may have already changed several times over the past 100 years!) This is a work in progress (as I add more and more postcards photographs), so check in from time to time! Here's what's available now:
