These are great fun.

I was kinda hoping for some images of the Old Bay Line, which I remember quite fondly, but alas. Still awesome though!

This collection is seriously cool. The detail in the images is exceptional!
But, zounds, that viewer is straight-outta-1999 horrible.

UMBC has an amazing in-house photography collection. I didn't realize they had so much online as well.

UMBC alum here. The photo collection is awesome, and they totally trust you with boxes and boxes and boxes of cool old pictures. The only drawback is that you have to wear these white Mickey Mouse gloves so you don't leave your schmutz all over these priceless pics.

This photo of Gilman Hall takes me back to the old days.. of the early early 21st Century. I haven't seen it since the most recent renovation...
