Share Your Photos

If you have pre-1970 photographs of identifiable places in our Houston viewing area, we'd love to hear from you. We can always use images of landmarks as they looked decades ago – the older the better – and images of places now lost to "progress." In addition, we have specific needs of images for the following upcoming stories:

• Ship Channel refineries, especially Sinclair, before 1940
• Homes or businesses in Acres Homes before 1960
• Any pre-WWII local amateur sport or outdoor activities
• Anything related to early Japanese rice farmers in Southeast Texas
• Moonshine makers or revenue agents who went after them
• Pre-WWII hunting and fishing
• Freedmenstown before 1950
• African-American fraternal organizations such as the Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, etc.
• Barnstorming baseball teams coming through Southeast Texas
• Houston first junior high schools: Marshall (North Side), South Side, Hogg, Jackson, E.O. Smith or Deady
• Any other pre-WWII school related photos from around Harris County

If you have photos* in regards to these upcoming stories or other images, please e-mail us at mvance@houstons55.com.

* Please do not send original photos. You may contact us for preferred digital image formats.
