Some years ago, I obtained several photocopies of photos of Kingston-area railway-themed photos from the Queen's University Archives: Davis Tannery, River Street bridge, Sydenham station and others.
Today I came face-to-face with some of those same photos, in the Reading Room of the Queen's Archives. They actually made me a card-carrying member! I hope to return and delve some more into their holdings.
George Lilley was a well-known photographer, freelance and press, the latter for the Kingston Whig-Standard. Many of George's photos hold secrets that are sometimes in plain sight, sometimes in the background.
It was an amazing walk through time with George's work today!
