We’ve posted about the Uno Langmann BC Historical Photograph Collection before here, here, and here, but now we’ve got even more to talk about!
Like, for example, this newly uploaded photo:
In case you want a refresher (and to know where this photo originates) – The Uno Langmann BC Historical Photograph Collection, with over 18,000 photographs, was donated by Uno Langmann a local Vancouver art dealer and his wife. It is considered an amazing collection of early photography, and local provincial history. The photos themselves span the ages – from 1850 all the way to the 1970s!
Today we want to announce lots of new albums from this collection have gone live! From only two albums last year at this time we now have more than 55 albums up for exploration- with more to come!
Take a bite out of the Uno Langmann BC Historical Photograph Collection! Click on any of the pictures to be taken to the albums.
Get a look into daily life…
Local history is everywhere in these photos too, from the fire at Pier D in 1938, to the building of the Lions Gate Bridge.
Hope these images we’ve collected wet your appetite for more!
Pier D fire was 1938-07-27, not 1911. You can see that on the photo page itself. http://digitalcollections.library.ubc.ca/cdm/ref/collection/langmann/id/4926
