My all-time favourite site/protoblog, closed in 2007. Still the archives are online. Two main parts: Isaac D’Israeli’s Curiosities of Literature - a very large work brought here online; and more especially, a gigantic database of strange (mostly fairly ancient) art and engravings.

Online version of the British Library. Lots of illustrated books as well, in flash format.
