Check out Dover “then and now” in local historian and photographer Thom Hindle’s two-book series, “Dover, New Hampshire Through Time: Volumes I and II”.
The books feature hundreds of photographs and illustrations of Dover’s past and present, as well as recognition and information on some of Dover’s early photographers. Photos from the past are reproduced from original negatives printed in sepia tone and the present in full color. The books also include early invoices and trade cards. Many of the photographs in the books, some dating back to 1860, appear in print for the first time.
Hindle is a commercial photographer, local historian, and former trustee-curator at the Woodman Museum. He has preserved over 100,000 original negatives taken by New England photographers from the early 1900s to the present.
Signed copies of both volumes are available for sale at the City Clerk’s Office at Dover City Hall, 288 Central Ave., and the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center, 550 Central Ave.
