is this anything like you are looking for?

Yes, that's very similar to what I remember.

That some old aerial photog from the 20's/30's? Been interested in finding old aerial coverage from "back in the day" for comparison, but it all seems to be locked up in paid-subscription sites, last time I checked. Used to be some Soviet Cosmos imagery available from the 80's, too, 10 years ago when I was just discovering the Net. My house was on one shot, and I was probably in the picture myself, at work at a building down the road at the moment the photo was shot from 120 miles up or however high the Sovs flew their Cosmos birds.

Thanks for the post.
