Re: OT: BW film photography from a bygone era
You can get 2-5 hits a day if you subscribe to the RSS Feed or an email delivery of http://www.shorpy.com a daily set of images from the Library of Congress along with shared photos from members of the group. They try to stick with 100+ year old stuff, but are liberal about that, as they are for subscriber submissions of the 50s and 60s.

Re: OT: BW film photography from a bygone era
Those are some gorgeous images. Thanks for sharing the link! Silver Efex Pro 2 gives you lots of BW film emulations to choose from, and you can tweak individual settings, including grain. I don't think this look would be that hard to duplicate with Silver Efex Pro 2 (probably other tools also).
