    A wonderful image from a fantastic set. Probably my favourite. Thank you for sharing these. Don't wish to sound critical, but is it me or has this been digitised slightly off-square? -- Seen in a discussion of the group "Flickr Commons" (?)

    I had thought from a search of this address on Google Maps / Streetview that it looked like the whole of this side of the street had been redeveloped now, but I had a browse around up and down the street and next to the new block stumbled across this exact same building, as it is today. It's now an antique shop.

    Many of the Atget prints in our collection show angled edges that make the images appear as if they were digitized somewhat off center. This trimming was either done by Atget or someone else before they came into the collection at GEH. I asked around this morning and it is not common to see albumen prints with these angled edges, however it is common to most of the Atget prints in our collection. I sent out an email to a colleague in Paris who has the definitive Atget collection and asked if their prints show the same edges. I will share the information when I get a response. Thanks for the question!

    Jessica, fascinating response, and it explains why it looks that way. Look forward to hearing more from Paris.

    Just as an aside, one of my colleagues who is French may be in Rouen this weekend and he was thinking of going to see this building. I also emailed the owner of the art gallery that can now be found there, but have had no response as yet.

Canadians marching through the streets of Mons, on the morning of November 11th 1918

from National Library of Scotland

    This was an remains a very controversial incident in Canadian military history. Critics of Gen. Arthur Currie question the decision to fight for the liberation of Mons when the Armistice was imminent. The last Canadian soldier died 2 minutes before the 11:00 a.m. end of fighting.

    At right, a Fire Escape Station lamp post. The ladder is against the wall of the church, behind the railings.

    The Robert Emmet stone isn't there yet ... In 1969 and thirteen years ago

    Edit: That tablet was "ERECTED BY THE THOMAS MOORE SOCIETY 1953”, so no help with dating. See -
