Check out the website www.Calumet412.com. Over 5,000 pictures of Chicago from the 1890s to the 1970s.

I saw an old home movie, supposedly near Addison and Kimball, or thereabouts, taken when the area was still dirt roads and mostly underbrush! There were two bicyclists moving ahead a bit, on a dirt path, but the film only lasted about 2 minutes at the most! It must have been taken in the 1890s sometime! I tried to find it again, but couldn't! Has anyone seen that film? Tom

Calumet412 is good, but there are thousands of great photos elsewhere. LOC, IDOT and the Parker collection come to mind.
