What you have in front of you is a unique collection of photographs
from the Wartime Photograph Archives ("SA-kuva-arkisto" in Finnish). It
contains some 160,000 photographs from Finland's Winter War, Continuation
War and Lapland War. Most of the pictures were taken by Information
Company (IC) photographers.

We were just browsing that at work yesterday. Awesome project. Though knowing the process and the amount of work that goes to even one single picture, our poor colleagues there probably don't want to see another photo in their lifetime.
