May 8, 1945. Two million people gathered in Times Square to celebrate the end of World War II.

The first camera ever built. Taken with the second camera ever built
The Inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, March 4, 1861 at the unfinished Capitol, Washington D.C
Market Street, San Francisco after the earthquake, 1906
"Her nipples were about to come onto my plate. In my face you can see the fear" -Sophia loren on Jayne Mansfield '57
Getting cooled air piped into the car while enjoying a meal at a drive-in restaurant. Houston, Texas, 1957.
Temple of Poseidon, God of the Sea, at Cape Sounion, South of Athens, Greece.
Goodyear’s illuminated tires. Developed in 1961 but never went into production

A trench on the WW1 battlefield of Verdun. These fights went on for so long, without any movement in the front lines, that soldiers were literally fighting on top of the decomposing corpses of comrades who died there before.

I think that picture of that camera was actually made using mirrors.

Illuminated tires? Never knew this could have been a potential thing.

I remember Prince's Drive-In in Houston, but had never seen the piped in air tubes. Pretty cool.

The car in which Jayne Mansfield was riding the night she died. She was decapitated.
Her death brought about the "Mansfield Bumper" which is intended to prevent gruesome accidents like that.

one of my favorite sports stories. obviously Beamon was a stud, but something just happened in that moment that had to be a freak of nature accident.
