Solve this History Mystery

Posted on October 2, 2016 by in History Mystery

Three Montgomery-area photographers have shared their decades-long collections with the Alabama Department of Archives and History. The task before us now is to identify everyone we can in those photographs, and you can help.

If  you recognize anyone in these, or previous photos (available at www.primemontgomery.com or www.archives.alabama.gov), contact Meredith McDonough, 334-353-5442 (meredith.mcdonough@archives.alabama.gov), or e-mail Prime magazine at primemontgomery@gmail.com.
