A couple of new websites hosting public domain documents associated with the US government.
The Library of Congress website is hosting a collection of Civil War Maps, as they date from 1861 -1865 they are all considered to be in the public domain.
Federal documents and publications are not copyrighted, and therefore are considered to be in the Public Domain. As such the photographs taken by the US Geological Survey are all in the public domain.
US Geological Survey's Digital Data Series 21 was a 4-disc CD-ROM set that has been recently put online for viewing. It contains many high quality photographs dating back to the 1880s. Also available to download the entire set of photgraphs as a Torrent (865MB).
