Historical Photos – Wisconsin Law

Have you seen the collection of photos that the Library of Congress has recently posted to Flickr? There are some pretty amazing photos, including a series of color photos from WWII era.
It got me curious about whether there were any interesting Wisconsin photos. I didn’t find much from the Library of Congress collection, but then I remember that the Wisconsin Historical Society also maintains a large online photo collection. Here are a couple that caught my eye.

The State’s First All-Woman Law Firm, 1945
Eight-foot Tall Lawyer, 1944
The Law Office, 1894

Update 1/31/08: Robert Ambrogi over at Legal Blog Watch was intrigued by the photo of Clifford Thompson, the eight-foot tall lawyer and did a bit of research.
