Photographs from the Chicago Daily News: 1902-1933 The explosion of daily newspapers and developments in printing
technology in the late 19th century made a plethora of visual
images available to the majority of urban dwellers, and the
city of Chicago was certainly no exception. As part of their
excellent online collection series, the Library of Congress
(in collaboration with the Chicago Historical Society) has
digitized approximately 55,000 images of urban life stored
on glass plate negatives dated between 1902 and 1933, all
taken by photographers under the employ of the Chicago Daily
News.
