The Life photo archives

Bitter Leaf Fan Page made a great discovery today of some incredible hockey photos in Life's photo archives, which are now fully searchable via Google. Here's an AP story about the move.

Here are some of my favourite hockey-related pics:

You can post pictures in the comments, so if you see other great ones, by all means get them in there.

Thanks for the link James, here’s one of my favourites.

Interesting that “ice hockey” seems to turn up a different set of photos than just “hockey” – the shots of a young Beliveau around Quebec city are fascinating.

That one was great

Even with no hockey being played in it, I love that photo. All of these are amazing!

The population of Pominville keeps rising!

Thanks for the link

I love all of these photos. I’d print and frame most of them, if ink wasn’t so pricey.

I'm a happy seal
