The photographs are from a number of collections housed in Temple Libraries' Urban Archives Department, including the McDowell Philadelphia Evening Bulletin Collection. Thousands of photos from this collection are searchable and accessible via Digital Diamond. The exhibit will continue until March 31, 2005, and is located on the main and ground floors of Paley Library.
