Ship of the Desert

Some more vintage photographs from 1922, this time from the trackless wastes of the Sahara and Algeria. Just click through for the high resolution version.

A wonderful shot taken at sunset in the Sahara that captures the feeling of isolation in the deep desert.



A trade caravan of camels loaded with goods passes through an oasis in Algeria.

Great Pics! I was dead set on starting my modern campaign, but these photos make me want to run Masks of Nyarlathotep again!

Modern is good, but you get to wear a fez and a smoking jacket with vintage. Heh.

I always preferred the Turban and Tux combo myself.
