Gallery: Finders & Keepers

The HAHS archives are chocked-full of historical items from our city's bygone days. Within the collection are photos of people, places and events, many of which have been identified over the years by HAHS staff, friends and volunteers. Unfortunately, a large number of items remain a mystery.

Our Finders & Keepers gallery is an attempt to solicit your help in labeling our unknown photos. We'll periodically update this page and ask that you contact us if you recognize any of the items on display (an e-mail link is included with each photo). We'll be sure to acknowledge your contribution in our records. Many thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

By the way, you're always welcome to stop by the museum during regular visiting hours to browse the treasure trove of unidentified photos that we've scanned and stored on our computer.
