Life Magazine Surfing Photos

Search millions of photographs from the LIFE photo archive, stretching from the 1750s to today. Most were never published and are now available for the first time through the joint work of LIFE and Google.

I just found this today and there is a lot of old Surfing photos.  Just thought you'd find them interesting
