Another customer called (that is a good thing) and asked for historical images of "the river" which did not narrow it down much. He did have the precise location with Section, Township and Range so we were set. It would have almost been fun to try to show a new employee the "filing system" we have. Go to the red book and use that for a while then the blue book then some on the computer, than a lot of the miscellaneous images. Oh yea, the computer my spit out a match for drawer 6B envelope 4424. OK, cabinet 6B is easy, then start looking for envelop 4424. Flip through the 4200s and then it jumps to 6800 then back to the 4200s than back to the 6900s then back to the 4200s and finally find 4421 and the next one should be the one ya want, and it is behind another batch of 7800s. Finally found it.
We have it a dozen times from 1951 to 2015 and now we wait for the real order on what years they want.
We just don't sell enough historical images to make it worth while to fix the system. Evey few years the former owner would decide to change the system and he never update to old stuff. It does work.
