Who is publishing this book? Is it the historical society or an individual? I wonder about people using this board for their personal financial gain! If you have photos you'd like to share, why not have copies made of them and donate them to your local historical society or genealogical society or your local library. That way you can still share them with many others and no one will have to pay money to see them. And if it's the historical society or genealogical society that is publishing the book, then the proceeds will be put toward the contiuation of the society, etc. Just my thoughts. ---- Nancy Perry <perryresearch1@yahoo.com> wrote: > from the Lex HL 4.23.2007 > Share old photos of the Bluegrass Do you have photos of Lexington and the Bluegrass from the middle part of the 20th century? > If so, your memories could be part of a new photo book about life in Central Kentucky from the 1940s to the 1970s. > Photos will be scanned in this week for the book Life in the Bluegrass: A Pictorial History 1940-1970. > Just take your photos to one of the scanning sites.

Although the posting does not say, It sounds like Arcadia Publishing. They do series of Images of America like the recent Garrard County and also Garrard County in World War II, both compiled by Rita Fox. If Arcadia is the publisher, the result will be as good as how done by the compiler(s). The work collected and compiled by Fox was excellent. G. R.
