You've probably heard about the Beryl Ford Collection, "the largest and most significant collection of photographs and artifacts relevant to the history of the City of Tulsa and the surrounding area."  

But did you know that you can view the photos online?  The project to digitalize over 75,000 photos has begun, and there are already over 750 images available via the Tulsa City-County Library website! (I wasted several hours the other night just browsing!  Very cool!)  

Want to see what 4th and Main used to look like?  Curious about a particular historic building?  Feeling nostalgic for Tulsa in its "glory days?" Check it out! Beryl Ford Collection

For history buffs, preservationists, and people who just care about Tulsa...these photos allow us to compare Tulsa to what it used to be...and think about what we want it to be in the future...
