Vintage Aerial

Vintage Aerial connects your personal memories and family history to photos of the places where the memories were made and the history took place. We are a small group of historians and technology experts who created Vintage Aerial to share our passion for preserving the heritage of rural America. Our collection of over 25 million photographs spans the second half of the 20th century, documenting a time in American history when life revolved around rural communities and small farms. Our common American heritage happened in that time, in those rural communities. We want to share the period preserved in these photos, and the memories they represent, with the generations who came too late to experience it firsthand. Vintage Aerial uses the latest in digital imaging and data storage technology to preserve these irreplaceable visual heirlooms. We are saving yesterday’s memories with today’s technology, for the tomorrows to come.
