I found this slideshow and wow, it is so cool. All these photos from 1900. They have been tinted, but still great to look at. Street scenes, country pavillions (Cambodia, Turkey, Dutch Colonies, the US, Russia, Austria, Belgium, Siam, Italy, Germany, Hungary, Tunisia, and Algeria), the Eifel Tower (I like the one night photo of it)and all the palaces built to show off the new-fangled stuff of 1900. Transportation, Mines, Textiles, Decorations, Electricity, Agriculture, Forestry, Sculpture, Marine Navigation. Then there are the photos of famous Paris sites. I just spent the last 2 hours looking at these. Make sure you use the Info button at the top so you know what you are looking at. Especially the street scenes.
Have fun and let me know if you like them. Even for people that may not like Paris?? you might still enjoy this.
