National Geographic society was founded in 1888 in Washington D/C by 33 men of varied disciplines   for “ the increase plus diffusion of GK/geographical knowledge.” Soon after, they began to publish the well known publication.

Since the first picture appeared in National Geographic magazine in 1889(a topographic map of North America) the magazine has delighted its readers with millions of photographic masterpieces from around the world. These photographs have been touching, poignant, political, horrific and even funny, but also thought provoking.

But did you ever wonder about photographs submitted that don’t make the hallowed pages of this world celebrated publication? Well now there is a place to go to view those too. In 2013 in honor of its 125 year anniversary, Nat Geo created the National Geographic’s Found archive. Here you can see rare never before published photos from the magazine’s own archives.

The subjects of these photos are as compelling and varied as any issue of the historical magazine might be. To peruse the amazing pics see more at natgeofound.tumblr.com
