Welcome to a photo archive of old Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney and Herm photographs along with some other interesting images as well!
The majority are taken from original negatives, slides and prints collected over many years, with most images having never been seen on the internet before.
New images will be added to the site reguarly.
This website's primary aim is to give anyone interested a chance to see these fascinating views of yesteryear, and if they have a photo collection themselves, a means of reference.
Most photographic collections, whether in a museum or held privately should be stored in an environment of controlled humidity and light for archival longevity, otherwise they will fade and be lost for future generations to see. Due to this fact, old photographs should not be permanently on view - The internet is a perfect medium to remedy this issue.
This site is a non profit making venture, but the order of copy prints of most images are welcome to help defray on-going costs of the website.
Enjoy!
