Founded in 2001, Snapshots of the Past says it was the first company to offer Library of Congress images as museum-quality fine-art reproduction prints. Its buyers have included over 200 bookstores and other retailers, as well as tens of thousands of internet customers. It was selected as a vendor for the White House redecoration project of 2008.

Lithography was invented in 1796, making inexpensive mass-produced poster prints possible. In 1989, the Library of Congress began the American Memory pilot project, which laid the foundation for the National Digital Library Program launched in 1995. That program digitizes selected collections concerned with American cultural heritage.

The brand also offers reproductions of holiday posters and early aerial views of Manhattan, Boston, Chicago and San Francisco. UPC 463436914233; SKU sku-13258162572.
