I forgot to share this! God I can be so stupid at times.

Try that out for music for your party scene or casual listening. All contemporary and very likely to be rights free after all this time.

The following is the link to the full text of the book "Strange New Gospels" a 1931 account of a number of fraudulent texts that purported to be 'lost' parts of the Bible, one of these "The Archko Volume" in it's original 1884 version actually contains material copied from "Ben-Hur", which got the author of "The Archko Volume" in a lot of trouble.

The 1884 edtion of "The Archko Volume" is viewable at the Internet Archive:

Early on we had a resource to the Lonestar College 1920s info page, a link that is now dead. A similar page can be found at the Costume Supercenter site found here.

In the morning, mist comes up from the sea by the cliffs beyond Kingsport. White and feathery it comes from the deep to its brothers the clouds, full of dreams of dank pastures and caves of leviathan.

Need Archaeological photographs from the 1920's? (And even the 1914 season!)
The people at the egyptian Exploration society have you covered. Photos from their past seasons are online.

Transcribing from the 1926-27 records as a part of a crowd-sourced archaeology project when I am bored at work, and decided to pop into their flicker feed to look at some different cards. Then saw the amazing photos and had to share.
Like this one of a head with preserved hair!
