A phenomenal collection of vintage Australian photos, including the Police and Justice File.
Need an illustration from a sixteenth century medical text for... oh, reasons? IHM has you covered and then some. Also includes propaganda, public service posters, tools and impedimenta, and lots and lots of Victorian anatomy illustrations.
Over three quarters of a million photographs from the late 1800s on. Another great resource for period images of crime scenes, night shots, etc. Look for the body stuffed in an oil can!
Lots of essays and photographs of, well, historic Detroit! Especially useful for the Irish Rosers.
On the other end of the scale, a wiki devoted entirely to the weird and unsettling aspects of Detroit then and now. Check out the Voodoo Murders!
