Letter to the Cultural Affairs Officer of Clifton Cantonment

We are contacting you to offer completely free of charge a new website for old photos of Clifton Cantonment.

It is likely that your locality already has one or more traditional or social media pages where old images of Clifton Cantonment are already shown, but Oldpik offers innovations and advantages that we think may be of interest to you:

• It is an open bank of images of Clifton Cantonment, both residents and the City Council itself can send photographs.
• The images appear with their description and date and can be sorted chronologically, by theme, or by upload date.
• Following the photos of Clifton Cantonment, on the same page, those of the nearest localities will appear Karachi, Faqir Kabar, Landhi Khan Bahadar, Porbandar and Chobari
• The images of Clifton Cantonment will appear contextualized in higher geographic categories such as your province page, your autonomous community, your country and even continent or the entire world.

We are actually inviting Clifton Cantonment to be part of the first bank of old images from around the world that has been created on the Internet. Oldpik does not aim to show famous old photographs but rather to transfer to the web the millions of photographs that citizens have in paper format in cookie or shoe boxes and that these become part of the history of the last two centuries. You cannot imagine the hundreds or thousands of photographs of your locality that are in the hands of individuals and that, together, can create a truly impressive historical heritage for Clifton Cantonment. And at no cost.

From your institution in Clifton Cantonment you have two ways to be part of this wonderful project:

1. Helping residents digitize images from your own organization and uploading them to Oldpik with your own user account.
2. Encouraging the residents of Clifton Cantonment through social networks to digitize their photos and share them on the Clifton Cantonment page of Oldpik.com
