Today, I discovered the website of the The Philadelphia Print Shop, located in the Chestnut Hill section of the city. I was charmed by their offerings of antique Philadelphian prints, paintings and advertisements. Here are a couple pictures of the Manayunk from the earlier part of the century (click each picture for the full size image).
