"We had a couple come in, and they were cleaning out their grandmother's, um, attic and they found a chest," said Libby Hopkins, the director of Plant City History and Photo Archives.
"And when they opened the chest, they found publicity photos of the Titanic before it sailed. Brought them to us and they said, 'We don't want them. Do you want them?' We were like, yes, definitely. We'll take them," said Hopkins
The Titanic photos and others were on display and they are free to look at.
Plant City Photo Archives is open Tuesday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
