Wow Photo Wednesday ~ Believe It Or Not

Wow ~ Lamar, Colorado, has an entry in Ripley's Believe it or Not! Someone figured out what to do with all that petrified wood laying around - they probably sell ashtrays, bolo ties, and inspirational plaques inside, all made from the same substance. And it's 150,000 years old! Well, thanks to all the little surprises tucked in our Digital Collections, now you know what not to miss next time you're in Lamar.

"Wow Photo Wednesday" celebrates photographs in the Denver Public Library's Digital Collections that have "The Wow Factor" and that highlight the myriad delightful nuggets in our database.
