A LITTLE DETECTIVE WORK
Four photos. For each, place a pin on the map and choose a year. Look for clues in signs, buildings, vehicles and clothing.
Earn up to 5,000 points for location and 5,000 for year per photo: 40,000 total. A pin within 25 km earns full location points; the exact year earns full year points. Scores decrease with distance and years missed. Some historical locations are approximate.
On the map, arrows pan, +/− zoom, and Enter or Space places a pin at the map centre. Escape collapses the map or closes a dialog. The year controls work with arrow keys.
The photographer, source and available licence links appear after each guess. Photos come from historical archives and open photo collections.
Zoom in to inspect the details. Drag to move around the photograph.
