Slatington Past and Present

This map exhibit combines (1) images from postcards depicting scenes in Slatington, PA in the early 1980s and (2) photographs of those same scenes in the 2010s, a little more than a century later. The postcards are part of my Slatington Postcards site, an online digital archive.

Clicking on the + or - will zoom the map in or out.

Beneath the zoom arrows, there is a base map selector that allows you to change the base map being displayed. For example, instead of the default street view, you could use a Google Earth imagery map.

The pins indicate exhibit items. If you click on a pin, you will find information about that location and a comparison of a postcard from about 1910 with a contemporary photograph.
