The Centralia Photo Archive
Do you need historic images of Centralia, Pennsylvania, and its mine fire for your magazine, television, or documentary film project?
The Centralia Photo Archive has hundreds of color and black-and-white images by David DeKok available for license. Those seen here are just a sampling. The collection is especially rich in images of the dramatic effects of the mine fire and of how the town looked before much of it was demolished. It includes many of the key people in the Centralia story. Most of the photos date from 1981-84, when the mine fire problem was at its worst. There are a few images from before or after those years as well.
You won't find many of these images elsewhere.
Prices and rights are negotiable, but generally I try to stay close to the FotoQuote recommendations. If interested, contact David DeKok at ddekok@mac.com, or at (717) 439-4159.
