Joseph J. Pennell was a successful commercial studio photographer who worked in Junction City, Kansas from the early 1890s to the early 1920s. During his long tenure in this quaint burg he managed to document all facets of town life. Through portraits of local celebrities, prominent families, soldiers, and photos of local businesses the culture of this town at the turn of the century was preserved. This digital collection from the University of Kansas brings together almost 6000 images culled from his many years in the community. Visitors can browse around at their leisure or they can also use the Browse by Categories area to look around by subject. Interesting topics include architecture, boxing, street scenes, and Thanksgiving. The zoom feature is especially worth noting as it allows for a rather life-like examination of the collection. All in all, it's a remarkable archive and one that will warrant several return visits.
