So you mean the world wasn't Black and White back then?

That's what I thought when I was small

how on earth are they all clean shaven in a trench :O

They aren't actual soldiers, just poster-boys. BTW uber-nice find.

Good find, though I stumbled across these a while ago. Colour makes it seem so much more real. It's sometimes hard to relate to the black and white photos of the soldiers, be they WW1, or Vietnam. On a related note, here's a site with colour ww2 photos. http://www.ww2incolor.com/gallery/ww2incolor

Awesome. I knew about WW2 color pics but didnt know about WW1 color.

Pretty old, but still cool.

I think we had another thread about it about a year ago.

 

[JellyWorld]

Haha, 1940s London doesnt look much different from 2006 London.

 

[Geogaddi]

From the site : "Two things stand out to me in this scene. One is the devastation contrasting with the toys(?) of these young boys.

The other is that these young boys have probably been dead for twenty years."

Pretty old, but still cool.

Yeah, from the 1910's to be exact.

 

[CyberPitz]
