MAPS ETC
Check out Maps ETC to find over 5,000 historic maps representing many different time periods. The same license which was mentioned above (with link) applies to the use of the map images.
CLIPART ETC
The ETC also presents over 60,000 pieces of free clipart on its Clipart ETC site. "Every item comes with a choice of image size and format as well as complete source information for proper citations in school projects. No advertisement-filled pages with pop-up windows or inappropriate links here." The same license as described above (with link) applies here.
If you have the free Cooliris plugin installed, you can view ETC clipart on a 3D wall without having to click to go from screen to screen.

Using Cooliris you can view 3D TV shows and movies as well as content on a number of websites in 3D on your computer or mobile device. You can even view the images stored on your own hard drive on a 3D wall as well. See a demo here.
