Retronaut


This site is an archive of historical photos.  There are many sites that do this, but this one is a bit quirky.  First you can search by era's, so if your teaching the Roaring Twenties this might be something to look at.  You can search by name.  You will not get standard pictures.  I typed in Nixon as it was the first name that came to my mind (he was a disgraced President of the US that resigned).  Here is what I recieved.  Elvis and Robocop are not your normal pictures you would expect from a President of the US.  To visit Retronaut click here.
