"From 1935-1944, the Farm Securities Administration -- Office of War Information undertook the largest photography project ever sponsored by the federal government."
The Library of Congress houses approximately 170,000 photographs from the Great Depression and the Second World War in this collection. Yale University's Photogrammar site geographically plots nearly 90,000 of those photographs in a map visualization available here. This link takes you to the version organized by county.
This is a great resource!
