Search millions of photographs from the LIFE photo archive, stretching from the 1750s to today. Most were never published and are now available for the first time through the joint work of LIFE and Google.
I don't know about 1750, since photography began around 1826, but the LIFE archives are an amazing resource. Link -via YesButNoButYes

Nice of them to provide these. As if I didn't already spend enough time roaming around on shorpy.com, now you infect my brain with more historical photographs.
