geogphotos Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Have been to Flüelen, and have not yet arrived at Brunnen, Can't find this place - expected it to be easy Shop on the right says W Theiler, building on left seems to be a bank. There is an old fountain presumably on a junction Straight ahead on the right a historic hotel/restaurant with ornate gilt sign out the front over the street Anybody have any clues please? Request for zoom/crops though text isn't legible? Thanks for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorilla Dave Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Following Vincent's lead... i found this... https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@46.881657,8.6439865,3a,24.5y,303.53h,92.34t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sAF1QipOqNP4iIc7vF9KamC-uHoD6iVv91xEW_zA-_zml!2e10!7i7680!8i3840?hl=en&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkxMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D which looks a good match. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey Isaac Greenberg Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Topic archival photos; image posted is 1950s? was told current most-wanted archival period is now 1990s; as each generation ages they start getting nostalgic in their 40s; consider when buying old images, may not be as fun, but…?!?

I think Ian is having lots of fun buying up images and contacting people when he can to get permission to upload them. Sounds like a lot of work to me but the images he shows are very interesting.
