Whole rolls of film, developed decades ago and scanned frame by frame, mostly from Europe. Many frames arrive with nothing known about them — no place, no date, no names. Anyone can help work that out.
Leaving a note on a photo needs no account. Answering a case does.
Some frames are worth showing and some aren't, and a second opinion helps sort them. Pick the one worth a closer look — or say none of them are.
Photos with no known place or date. The evidence is in the frame — street signs, car models, architecture — and anyone can add what they work out.
Frames that had no place or date until someone recognized the detail that gave them away.
The rolls come from flea markets, and they hold the everyday photographs that never made it into an album. The people in them had families, and some of those families are still around. Online, a photo has a way back to them.
Recognize a car model or a street corner? Leave a note on the photo. No account needed — comments from visitors are checked before they appear.
Case answers — a location, a date range, a name — need one. It also keeps your favorites and tells you when a case you worked on moves.
