Vintage Photo Finds is an Online Collection of Old Pictures Found at Flea Markets

header

Joel Snow was visiting a flea market in Colorado this past October when he came across a box with several packets of old negatives at the bottom. After digitizing them, Snow realized that it was a fascinating collection of old photos from the early part of the 20th century.

Many of the photos appeared to have been taken in Mexico, and some of the shots appear to show soldiers during the 1916 Punitive Expedition to Mexico.

Here are some of the photographs discovered in the box:

Snow is sharing his find through a new website called Vintage Photo Finds. He’s also sharing a portion of the images in a “Print Quality Photos” section where visitors can purchase larger prints of images they like. Proceeds of the sales will go towards “feeding Snow’s photo hunting habits and maintaining the website.”
