"Sepia Town" historical images and maps

Sepia Town combines Google Maps with historical images to present an historical map of various locations.
The objective of SepiaTown is to map a virtual past by collecting and mapping a vast collection of historical and vintage photographs, prints, film, audio and other media.
SepiaTown lets you view and share thousands of mapped historical images from around the globe. We welcome historical images from collections of all sizes, from libraries and historical societies to individuals with a boxful of cool old photos.
Try a search for 'Sydney' to view a contemporary satellite image superimposed with historical images.
