History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

The Telephone

Genevieve Clark, daughter of Speaker of the House Champ Clark, and in the 1940's a candidate for the House of Representatives for Louisiana, is photographed c. 1915 using a US Candlestick Style telephone. Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876.
