Thanks for this Out to Lunch I will work my way through the site. (Phew!)

In the mean time others may enjoy this site which I have been plodding through. Its organised by decade which is OK so far as it goes though I would prefer a useful key word cloud to supplement it.

When I worked at ABN AMRO in Chicago I found that La Salle Bank (they had just purchased them) had a world class collection of photos. ABN AMRO sold their USA entities to Bank of America, makes me wonder where they are now.

Thanks for the link. Hope all is well back home.

Thought I’d bump @Out to Lunch ‘s thread.

I came across a photo of the control room of the German WW1 submarine SM UB-110 and traced some of the other control room photos here (crazy plumbing scheme! Yikes!!):

Rare photographs show the interior of the German submarine SM UB-110, 1918 - Rare Historical Photos

U-Boat 110 was rammed after attacking a merchant convoy near Hartlepool in 1918. Later she was salvaged with an order to restore her to fighting state.
