I've wandered thru Options but do not see any which blocks or unblocks pictures and other graphics. I'm sure there must be some well-hidden setting for this.

On the toolbar > Options > Privacy. Allow remote content (images are almost always remote content.)

Thank you, mucho! I've wandered thru settings multiple times and asked the question on the net w/o an answer. Mark went straight to the answer. It would be useful if Thunderbird had a popup option as to viewing the graphics rather than an all or none setting (and ratrher hidden at that). Thanks again Mark.

Sorry, Matt not Mark. But my eyesight is dimming (anyway, yhat's my excuse). I used yr previous info to allow all remote, so now i get evrything. At least that work's. Now, I'll try yr ;latest info so I can decide on an individual basis. So, thanks again!
