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.

Hockey Comes Indoors

The first organized indoor game of ice hockey was played on March 3, 1875 at the Victoria Skating Rink in Montreal, Canada. In 1893, this photograph was taken by William Notman during a game in the same building.
