Snapshots of the Past restores historical maps, photographs and prints from the Library of Congress archives for use as home decor. Founded in 2001, it was the first company to offer Library of Congress images as museum-quality fine-art reproduction prints. Its customers include over 200 bookstores and other retailers, along with tens of thousands of internet customers. The company was selected as a vendor for the White House redecoration project of 2008. Lithography, invented in 1796, helped make poster prints inexpensive to produce in large numbers. In 1989, the Library of Congress began its American Memory pilot project, which laid the foundation for the National Digital Library Program launched in 1995. That program digitizes selected Library collections focused on the complex history of American cultural heritage. Snapshots of the Past makes its prints with fine-art archival paper and pigmented inks, intended to last a lifetime and be passed down. Its range includes old holiday posters and early aerial views of Manhattan, Boston, Chicago and San Francisco. The retro-style prints can be displayed at home or work or given as gifts.
