| Old New Orleans |
| Welcome! This site is a work in progress, please visit often to see what other photos, topics, places, people and stories I've added. I already had a collection of vintage New Orleans postcards and photos online, but, after the levee failures, I felt a need to create a series of pages that would enable me to devote more attention to specific places, customs and groups of people, with the emphasis still on old photographs and illustrations, but with some history and story-telling added. In this way, I can provide a more complete picture of each and, ultimately, a more complete picture of my historic, unique and wonderful hometown, the grand old lady by the river....New Orleans. She has given me so much. This is my gift to her. Nancy Brister |
