Hi George, That's a good idea. In fact it is such a good idea that I already thought about it. :) Though I haven't decided yet exactly how I will go about doing it. I will definitely put up a few pictures and inroduce this "find" on my local blog. Maybe link it to another web gallery, asking people to help out identifying buildings, places and people. Or I may approach the local news papers as well. Giving a few samples and a link. Or/and contacting the local muséum, which at times has arranged exhibitions of old photographs asking visitors to help identifying places and people. People around here seem to enjoy doing that. (I'd say that the Alanders are particularly fond of caring about their past in such a way, because they will likely find old relatives and places they have a relation to in one way or another in the pictures.)
