OVER 24000 LANTERN SLIDE PHOTOGRAPHS IN ONE ARCHIVE. people, places and moments that history nearly lost.

COLLECTION: PLACES AND COMMUNITIES

Named villages and towns, recognisable streets, communities caught in a moment of ordinary life.

From the Welsh valleys to colonial-era East Africa, from Edwardian seaside towns to the Holy Land in the 1880s. The specificity of named places means that if you're looking for somewhere in particular, you can actually find it.
