Greetings!
Others to consider including:
George Eastman House
http://www.geh.org/
Corbis
http://pro.corbis.com/
[although they charge an arm and a leg for photographs, you can frequently
ascertain the repository or publication from which the image is derived, and
go directly to the source] The same for Getty Images
http://www.gettyimages.com/Home.aspx
OAIster
http://www.oaister.org/
Searches can be limited by resource type [text, image, etc.]
Cheers,
