More useful reference images

With the three books I acquired I scanned in all possibly useful images I could find. While I looked through the books, I came up with some ideas that I will post next.

Book of Architecture in mid 19th Century:

I thought of using black and white photos to manipulate to create a 'fake' scene in history. Of course it would needs to look original and a little bit rediclous. For instance in the image above, I place giant elephants/men/children dancing down the street. If I were to pursue the idea I would also add additional patterns and colourize the image using photoshop.
 Here are more images that could be used as a partial backdrop of the final image:

Items like these (below) could be used as decoration props:

 

For now I leave it here and will work on the image I currently have the idea of.
