Phototime is my attempt to share some of the wonderful undigitized images with the public from the numerous collections that either a researcher has come to view, collections that have just been donated, photo collections that I find intriguing, as well as collections that my wonderful volunteers have finished organizing here in the Western History/Genealogy Collection.

Working with the photographic collection is one of my dreams come true.

Water everywhere! 

Except at the Central Library. Due to a water main break outside of the Central Library, the library was closed for 1 and 1/2 days. Hence a late Weird Photo Wednesday.

A line up of beautiful women on the Denver skyline! Let's hope a gust of wind doesn't turn up. Notice all of the smoke in the sky. Denver even then had problems with the brown cloud.

Come on down to the Pig Parlor! 

How restaurant names have changed! Where the Pig Parlor used to be the place to go in Denver, we now have Rootdown, Linger, Sushi Den and so much more.

What's the slide rule for? 

That's the key question for today's Weird Photo Wednesday. There's a story behind every photo, but we may really have to guess at this one.
