    THe only archive on flickr commons to ruin every single picture with an ugly logo on the corner of every single image.

    www.flickr.com/photos/146237924@N02/ if you need a clean image of any of our content, please email archives[at]halifax.ca. We decided to watermark our images after finding them for sale on commercial sites. We invest a lot in preserving original photographs, digitizing them and documenting all the details we have on them to share with the public so people can enjoy them. If they want to profit from their use we ask that they contact us.
