Flickr and the Library of Congress

Flickr.com makes available over 5,000 images from the U.S. Library of Congress. Using their tags system and powerful search engine, you can locate many of these images more easily than on the LC website.

The images are available at a variety of file sizes and as they are in the public domain, can be freely used.
