I've been immersed in the new LIFE magazine photo archive on Google for the past few days. I've utterly lost myself within the nooks and crannies of this immense labyrinth of historic photos reaching all the way back to the 1860s, with etchings going back as far as 1750 or so. I love to wander over to May 22, 1886 and watch Isabel and Nellie Harter skipping rope, then swing over to 1938 and ogle the lovelies at the Rose Dor Farms Reducing School. (Seriously, what are they doing to those women?!).

So that's my offering for the day. And the most super excellent thing of all is, you can order ANY of these photos as a print.

For your walls.

In your house.

Yeah, I KNOW.

That is seriously amazing. I think I might while away my whole day at work tomorrow surfing the archives!
