<p>These <strong>rediscovered Photochrom and Photostint postcard images</strong> from the private collection of Marc Walter were produced by the <strong>Detroit Photographic Company between 1888 and 1924</strong>. Using a photolithographic process that predated the autochrome by nearly 20 years, they <strong>offered people the very first color photographs of the United States</strong>. Suddenly, the continent¿s colors were available for all to see. From the rich ochres and browns of the Grand Canyon to the dazzle of Atlantic City, these places were now a visual delight not only for eyewitnesses but for Americans far and wide.<br/><br/>Imbued with a sense of discovery and adventure, the pictures gathered here are <strong>a voyage through peoples, places, and time</strong>. They take us through North America¿s vast and varied landscape, where we encounter its many communities, and above all transport us back to the United States of over a century ago.
