The Historic Postcards of Durham Collection, compiled by John Schelp of Old West Durham, consists of more than 150 items. All images of historic landmarks and buildings in Durham are from original postcards, except for JS032, which is a reproduction. If you are interested in obtaining a photographic reprint, a scan, or permission to use any of the images, please contact the North Carolina Collection librarian for more information.
The postcard images may be viewed in two ways. Acknowledgments for this collection
John Schelp, local history buff, lent the library his postcard collection for this project and composed the captions for the web site. Allen Dew, computer consultant and North Carolina Collection volunteer, scanned the front and back of each postcard, assembled all the components, and developed the web pages. Lynn Richardson, North Carolina Collection librarian, coordinated the project and edited the slide captions and other site content.
