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.

NOTE:
You may click any picture in this blog to view it on its' own screen.

Save, Save, Save!

This photo shows the 1918 version of today's ATM machine. Made to resemble a bank building, it was put out by the 'Bankers Automatic Receiving Teller Co.' in Washington, DC. One of its' primary uses was in the local public schools, where children were strongly encouraged to save on a regular basis.
