Is this a duplicate of #72?

Sorry I wrote the title wrong. No it isn't a duplicate. These are images by the US National Archives. They are also on Flickr. I don't know if I can change the title. Can you change it or recreate the issue with the correct title? I'm not at my computer.

I've updated the title, think you should also be able to modify it if needed.

@davanstrien Can you add this to the project board so I can claim it and upload it? I have the images and metadata downloaded and cleaned now: https://github.com/orgs/bigscience-workshop/projects/8/views/1?query=is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc

Ok I have uploaded this now.

Thanks for working on this. Would you be able to add a little bit of documentation describing the dataset. Writing a full datacard would be great but even a high level summary of the data would be great so other people know what the data is, how to use it and potential biases and limitations in the collection.

Yes I will add some information, but this is the first week of class, so I don't know when I will be able to get to it. Hopefully by next week.
