About the Giphantia Collection
This is a photo archive for orphaned photographs. These are photos that people have discarded and have been rescued from the trash. Photos that have been cherished for many years by people who are no longer among us or who decide not to keep them anymore. Sometimes, there are nameless faces; sometimes, these can be identified through the accompanying letters, documents, postcards, memorial cards, etc.
It is an archive kept alive by digitizing and (when permitted) sharing the photos on this website. Images at risk of disappearing are digitally restored.
