I now use the photo sharing site Flickr to put my vintage photos online. It’s quick, it’s easy, but best of all there’s a huge community of enthusiasts, specialist interest groups, and passers by who are willing to share their knowledge. You can see what images others have, and of course post your own for the world to see.
Here are a few good places to go:
- Vintage Photographs [Directory] – a single source for all the vintage photograph groups on Flickr. Whether it’s photographic styles, geographic locations, or every subject matter you could think of, there’s probably a group for it!
- Dated Vintage Photographs group – an ever-growing resource of vintage images that are from known dates
- Geotagged Vintage Photographs – creating a world map of old images
- What’s That Picture group – the place to post all your mystery photos
