Tom,

Me too, apparently the site changes passwords every 180 days. Wish I knew what the new one was.

Let me know if you have any luck finding it.

I just checked as well. How does one get a password on the site? Is it the same as asking for permission to reproduce the images? It seems as if it is a cryptic site.

This is from the Sanborn web site:

So I would be careful about posting access codes/passwords to a site like that on a public forum like this. It could get Kalmbach in trouble.
