About the photograph collection
Most of the photographs in the Local History Photograph Collection depict scenes in the city of Toledo, plus photographs of much of Northwestern Ohio and Southeastern Michigan. Many of the Toledo photographs depict the downtown area, although a large number of Toledo area industries (Jeep, Toledo Scale, Libbey Glass, Owens-Illinois, LOF, etc.), schools, hospitals, and parks are represented as well.
