This DVD:

might be useful to you; you can see the types of images it has at:

In fact, you could just as easily browse through all they have in the second
link (keep hitting the next 200 link, as there's TONS--10,000!) rather than
trying to deal with ordering from a German language site. They do have
images from lots of eras, though I don't know how far back they go.
