TopFoto is delighted to announce representation of the Chicago History Museum images, effective immediately.

Chicago’s history is world history, all the themes writ large in the crucible of one of the world’s great cities.  Skyscrapers were invented in Chicago; Al Capone operated out of Chicago; and of course there is the Trial of the Chicago Seven (a story released as a major movie last year) and corresponding courtroom artistry of Franklin McMahon.

Daily life and headline events are compelling in the richness of imagery.  Race riots, strikes, the architecture, the stockyards, transport, society and subversiveness.

You can find sporting legends such as Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Union Giants, and visiting superstars such as Babe Ruth.  Source images of the great themes, industries, fashions, protests, riots and personalities that have shaped Chicago and indeed the USA.

With thousands of images from the Museum already on our site, you can also request help from our search team who will hunt down the images you need and download from the Museum directly on your behalf.
