Street scenes

Anyone know of a good sight for 19th century photographs of villages and small towns? I want to print in black and white or sepia to produce simple back scenes to stations on a garden 16mm narrow gauge layout. They wont last long hence the need to be able to replace regularly and cheaply. TIA.

Use a laser to print then have them laminated? Seems to be weatherproof.

Check library - There is a series of books called Photographic Memories of . . . (county name) A4ish format

Graphics are smallish; prints can be purchased.

if you want them to last, get them printed on signwriter's vinyl - by a signwriter....... stuff here in Australia is guaranteed colour-fast for two years
