History

The New York Daily News photo archive is the largest online searchable database of photographs in the world. It consists of current color photographs as well as historic images edited from more than six million prints and negatives in the Daily News library. The collection includes staff material dating back to the paper's founding in 1919, and other material dating back to 1880.

The era of the tabloid newspaper, distinguished by the prominent role played by photographs, began in 1919 with the founding of the New York Daily News. The News picture collection represents an important piece of modern photojournalistic history, documenting the birth of tabloid photography with its reliance on dynamic images meant to grab the attention and imagination of busy city readers.

The Daily News photo archive is the best visual history of 20th century New York in existence. Everything from entertainment to politics, disasters to celebrations, criminals to heroes has been photographed by News photographers.

The archive is updated every day with the latest photos from the News' extensive coverage of events in the city and around the world. If it's happening in New York, it's covered by the News. We are on the scene at every major story, whether it's a four-alarm fire on the west side, a demonstration at City Hall or a party attended by the most famous and glamorous celebrities in town.
