About Me

My photo
Adalbert is a forum for me, to post ephemera, photography, poetry, occasional travel notes, and various spontaneous motions. Cover photo: Parsonage where my great-grandfather spent his early years. Taken near Liegnitz, Silesia, ca. 1870. The "xothique" portion of the web address is a nod to Clark Ashton Smith's fictional continent of Zothique.

    Nice picture. It's strange to realize there were several of these present in NY once.

    Thanks Rob, those elevated railways would have been something to see. I need to get a viewer sometime so I can "time travel" with these cards.
