Two photos were repeated, the three young black boy drummers and the Coney Island beach scene.

Say THAT DONT START WITH MARY JO BISCHOFF EVEN IN THE FIRST PICTURE

Lydia Roberti was more of a secondary comedian on screen.

I just saw the first picture and wondered why all those bodies are about the same size and the nurses are standing there like they are showing off a day of work?

The train at the 7:00 mark looks like it was made in the year 2100. Such a futuristic look. Out of this world.

The mother with her 8 sons. I'm glad they made it back😃

Some fascinating views-- but 1890s to 1915 images are HARDLY the "oldest photos ever taken"!!!!

Those beautiful buildings in the USA, just being demolished... And then they complain they have no history. Well, you do. A history of destroying beautiful buildings.

Tereza Cristina do Brasil❤😊

Thank you for the beautiful pictures I wonder just when it became popular to show hatred for this country and just when it became acceptable to show hatred and anger against people who show a love for their country. we neglected to teach our children we let people teach our children to hate our country.

Great episode thanks

Nice 😊

Please correct it is Independence day!

Agree it's nice work whit this good job thanks

Stupid not creepy

The post WWII photos are not historical yet. A lot of us were around then. Historical times are those where the people in them can no longer be naturally alive. The 1970s grocery store historical? No. That was my college years. My brother's high school years. A history making event is historic always, like the scaffolding disaster at the Indianapolis Speedway. This is my opinion, and I'll stick to it.

Why people so gladly follow demonized lunatics, like Hitler and Lenin, will always remain a thing to wonder about. People, who do not reckon with God's commandment to LOVE and respect one another, seem capable of the worst of the worst. Sometimes slowly, but gradually. But capable nonetheless.

The german soldiers forced to watch the horrors of the concentration camps! They fought for the monsters, doing that to people. Hope many were shattered and haunted by it. The world said: "never again!" Then the many intense atrocities of Oct. 7 happened and the college students celebrated the vilest of the vile terrorists. How will they ever escape something like that themselves? I don't know. They will be judged for it. When you are all for the unspeakable, done to innocent people. you will face it yourself. In some way. Eventually. And rightfully so.

The photo of Eistein and Chaplin is so very fake! When Chaplin was that old, Einstein had been dead and gone for years, decades! So disappointed in you.

Magnificent collection. Useless to ask about the insistence with the Funeral March?

Beatles visiting

Old photo 1962 ke old photo 1962 ke Britain ke

Great pictures. But wish I could read the descriptions I got a couple but big subscribe button in the way and @historicalfiles making the rest hard to read.

spain

great music love

Wonderful photos from a different time

The midget in the tuba - omg! 😂😂

Great pics!

I think I can see Shane riding his horse in the Tetons photograph.

They are penitences

Schöne alte Fotos ❤😊❤

The side by side photos @ 4:39 appear to be a photo for use in a stereopticon. I used mine to test it and wasn't sure if I was getting the 3D effect. It seemed to but I could only get so close to the screen due to the rail that sticks out forward where the slide moves back and forth to focus the cards the photos are mounted on. I was taught by an older photographer who took these type photos for Eisenhower in WWII as areal reconnaissance how to take them with any camera today as long as no moving subjects are included.

nazarine, catholic, K.K.K got to be a connection somehow....... as for the scalping survivor,...I only ever heard of one previously ,......hairless. hank in an old western magazine years. ago

All were interesting!

The Beatles of course!!

Awesome pics as usual!

These pictures and the accompanying music are offered for our edification and enjoyment. I wish people would stop the whiny critiques and simply enjoy the gift.

I had to silence the music , the first set was just too repetitive I recognised the second set. I enjoyed the photos

I was hesitant to mention Joy Division's song Heart and Soul, because I think I have done so previously. Seeing the picture of Piccadilly Circus seems to be a sign it's ok. =P It came to mind as soon as I read the title of this group of pictures. verse 3: An abyss that laughs at creation A circus complete with all fools Foundations that lasted the ages (these last 2 lines differ from what I think I've heard with my 2 ears)(someone else might hear something different =) ) Then ripped apart at their roots verse 5: Existence what does it matter I exist on the best terms I can The past is now part of my future The present is well out of hand time as we know it is fleeting- things that happened 5 years ago seem like yesterday, or an hour ago. my perspective has changed. A Family Circus cartoon is before my eyes- gramma and momma have children running around their skirts. Gramma tells momma- 'enjoy them every minute dear, before you know it they will be gone.'

The Titanic orphans were the Navratil brothers who had been kidnapped by their father and taken on the Titanic. Their parents had been going through a bad breakup and they were in care while the courts decided which parent would have custody. Their father had them for a visitation day and instead of returning the boys to their carer he took them on the Titanic without the knowledge of their mother or anyone else. The father told passengers he was a widower and they were all using other names. They survived but their father did not. Being so young and not speaking English made identifying them difficult and it was nearly a month before they were identified and reunited with their mother who had not known they had been on the ship and ultimately in America until their pictures and story of being unidentified orphans was made public on both sides of the Atlantic. The mother had to travel to the US to claim them and the boys and their mother returned to France.

Men who worked on early skyscrapers without safety equipment were daredevils for sure

All of them!!! Different time for sure!

Some great pictures, as usual. We appreciate the time and effort to present them!

Not good music...

Love the pics, but is not good.

They are not abandoned places, the property is still in someones name.

Of COURSE Salvador Dali would have a pet anteater! What else? 😂

The only difference is everything is more modern

That terrible muuuuusic
