The best thing to happen to the internet in Vancouver since "Definitely Raining"

It's been an incredible couple of weeks for the web in Vancouver; A few days ago I shared the incredibly funny DEFINITELY RAINING blog with you, stating my opinion that it's "the funniest web site about Vancouver ever in the history of the internet", and today another gem landed in my lap. Background / Vancouver is a portrait of our city captured on an autumn day in 1972 by artists Taki Bluesinger, Michael de Courcy, Gerry Gilbert and Glenn Lewis. Taken on as a this project for Vancouver's Intermedia Society, the Vancouver Sun published it as a collectible 15" x 24" foldout in 1974 and Michael de Courcy has brought it to the internet for the pleasure of your eyeballs and your brain. Today!

One of my favourite of the 360 photographs in the collection is this one of the old Cambie Bridge. Many other treats await you, click HERE to have a look through this gallery is 300 images of Vancouver in the 70's.
