The Old Photo Guy is a Business dedicated to saving Historical Photos for future generations. I started collecting Logging images after i had a customer come into my studio and tell me about the old photos that were in his family and they did not know what to do with them so they threw them in the dump. After that day i asked every person over 30 if they knew where i could locate old historical photos ; and to my surprise hundreds of people started donating their old photos so my wife Penny and I have dedicated our lives to finding and preserving the past for the future one photo at a time. Our Collection is mainly focused on the Logging along the Pacific North West . We are based out of Northern California in Beautiful Humboldt County. I have been in the Photography Business since 1987. The Old Photo Guy also offers scanning and printing services as well. Contact me to have your Family albums scanned and saved to an external Hard Drive for future Generations to enjoy.

Wow Greg! What a beautiful thing to do. Love seeing how our hometown of Petrolia and surrounding areas looked before we were there. Just amazing. Keep sharing the memories.

I had to write to tell you just how much I appreciate your pictorial history collection. With that in mind, I'm also writing for some advice...I have turn of the century Post Cards. Some are circa WW1 or 2, and others are antique Greeting cards, and my star collection is Postacrds of Panama...for example: I have 1 of the Dredge CREATING the Panama Canal. Can you please send my advice on where I may be able to:1) Sell them and 2) where (which site) I can possibly figure out their worth.

I was looking for old logging pics,and a friend told me about this site.Then I saw the pics of the '64 flood, and started looking at them.My family and I had the dairy on Cockrobin Island at the time,and I remember being rescued by the Coast Guard Helicopter,which unfortunately went down afterwards with the loss of 7 lives. These pics bring back a lot of memories.

Found your site because a cousin of mine shared one of your photos via Facebook, loved all the pictures but the ones I went through didn't have any logging in it, maybe I need to research your site further. My husband fell timber in the late 60's early 70's at Elk River. Thak you so much for sharing such a great site, I love reliving the "good old days"
