It should be emphasized that these are old newspapers, with a great interface. You can move an enlarged region of the page around in the viewing window and watch the indicator rectangle move around in the thumbnail of the page, or move the small rectangle around in the thumbnail and change the contents of the viewing window.

It's like a time machine... absolutely great. It may not replace those old piles of LIFE Magazine that I have in my garage, but for historical research this is going to be a treasure trove. Great thing for Google to do, more or less on its 10th birthday.

(As I think about it, I wish they had such an interface for Google maps. It seems natural that they would, but I don't remember that they do).

Am I missing something? I clicked the "advertisements" link in the OP above and ended up on a page where a search had been conducted on ford model T.

I changed the search term to a company that has existed since 1900. I got a search results page that listed a lot of articles, but it seems to actually read the articles I have to pay a fee to the newspaper.

Is that the purpose of this project or am I missing a method of reading the old articles free?
