George Eastman Museum on Flickr

You know I love old photos, so you can imagine my delight when I stumbled across this photostream on Flickr

It is the George Eastman's Museum photostream they uploaded some of their collections.
If you love early photography check it out... especially the autochromes stream, trully beautiful.

Here is a link to the Museum too
