About this business
Photo Antiquities is a small museum dedicated to exploring the history of photography. The walls are filled with images from the camera's earliest days. The collection includes daguerreotypes, Magic Lantern slides, albumen-coated plates and 3-D pictures. One room houses images from Pittsburgh's early days. The museum is easy to overlook, as it is located on the second floor above Bernie's Camera Shop, but this is one spot you won't want to miss.

Hidden gem )) By app only
This is an amazing collection of history and of art, both photographic and industrial design. A must for anyone interested in art, photography, history, or just neat places. A tour is well worth it!
Not something you'd expect to find in the location but an absolute hidden gem. A very interesting and engaging tour of photography technology across time. Scheduled an hour long tour on Saturday but there is enough material for 3 separate tours. The owner/operator of the museum gave the tour and you could tell that he has a great passion for historically preserving both these pictures and the equipment to take them. And he does it on a shoe string budget. Would recommend to anyone visiting the city.
