British Library Put One Million Images in Public Domain was created by Shellhead
(This is less about game pimping and more about game designing, or at least prototyping.)
The British Library just put one million images into the public domain:
"We have released over a million images onto Flickr Commons for anyone to use, remix and repurpose. These images were taken from the pages of 17th, 18th and 19th century books digitised by Microsoft who then generously gifted the scanned images to us, allowing us to release them back into the Public Domain. The images themselves cover a startling mix of subjects: There are maps, geological diagrams, beautiful illustrations, comical satire, illuminated and decorative letters, colourful illustrations, landscapes, wall-paintings and so much more that even we are not aware of."

And remember, there will probably never be a similar release from the 20th century while Mickey Mouse still lives.
