Farber Gravestone Collection

Hope Cemetery, Worcster, MA, 1965 (Farber Gravestone Collection)

If you're itching to do some grave hunting, but are stuck at home this Halloween week, check out the Farber Gravestone Collection, a photogtaphic archive of over 9,000 historical headstones.  The collection is both macabre and beautiful, and, since it's sponsored by the American Antiquarian Society, it's also a great historical resource.  Whether you're just browsing, or looking for references on early American history, it's well worth a look.
