Library of Congress

The Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division has a large number of historic photographs in its collection. Some of them are from Sedalia and Pettis County. Unfortunately, dates are not available for many of these images. Even so, it is interesting to look at the collection.

Every year, the Library of Congress adds an exclusive group of 25 songs to its National Recording Registry.
