The Snapshots in Time Collection

Gallery: Part 5

Filed among a collection of military band negatives, these 1940s frames turn out to be almost entirely personal: family portraits, a woman caught mid-laugh indoors, and a couple bundled against the wind on a rocky New England beach. Lighthouses, harbors, and sunlit seascapes on the same rolls show how everyday life shared film with archival subjects.
