Ushistoryimages.com has hundreds of old most b&w images.

Does anyone know of a comparable site for European images?

Thank you for posting this. Great information.

It is very good for what it covers. I need something comparable for Europe and earlier history.

Wikimedia sometimes has good material.

The French and German national archives have a lot of material, but you need to know how their copyrights work. For gallica.bnf.fr, the quality of the scans, and of the source documents, varies wildly.

Also try the Finnish national archives. Essentially everything they have is digitized and online, and the quality is generally top-notch.

I'm looking for material that is copy-right free. Lots of illustrations in 19th century books are, now.
