NPR was talking about this site today:

http://dearphotograph.com/




edit:  A website invites readers to submit photos of photos — images from the past, set in the present.

A few years ago, there was a guy who did the same thing for a local newspaper...
It was pretty strange but fun still.

This guy does it quite a lot with found photos.  I think he wrote somewhere that he'd found a box of old prints at a Bolognese flea market.
