I have been to the site many times. This is a great resource. I have bought
reproductions from them for my own projects and been very pleased.

Subject: [CBQ] Vander Mass photograph collection
Bill Ewinger led me to this excellent collection of photos that are
available online, from the University of Iowa. John Vander Mass of
Muscatine, IA amassed this huge collection/ I've been told that there are
in excess of 200,000 photos that were taken by John driving around for two
weeks every summer to record mainly depots.
To see the CB&Q photos - enter CBQ in the Advanced Search box and click on
Search - this filters out everything except the 13 pages of CB&Q photos.

There are some very interesting and rare shots - look closely through all of
them for the gems!
