Letter to the Cultural Affairs Officer of San Manuel de Colohete

Dear Mayor or Cultural Affairs Officer of San Manuel de Colohete

We are contacting you to offer completely free of charge a new website for old photos of San Manuel de Colohete.

It is likely that your locality already has one or more traditional or social media pages where old images of San Manuel de Colohete 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 San Manuel de Colohete, 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 San Manuel de Colohete, on the same page, those of the nearest localities will appear Santa Rosa de Copán, El Palmo, Intibucá, Copán Ruinas and Palacios
  • The images of San Manuel de Colohete 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 San Manuel de Colohete 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 San Manuel de Colohete. And at no cost.

From your institution in San Manuel de Colohete 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 San Manuel de Colohete through social networks to digitize their photos and share them on the San Manuel de Colohete page of Oldpik.com
