These Vintage Photos Really Put History into Perspective 

The one that shocked me for a moment was the picture of the Beefeater guards at the Tower of London. They dress the exact same way to this day! I honestly thought at first that it was a modern black and white picture, but it was actually taken in the late 1800's! Astonishing.

Thank you, those glimpses of the Past, are so evocative and somewhat emotional too

Very interesting photos and wonderful music. Thank you.

Great last pic of Stan and Ollie ("Two Tars"?). Stan retired to a modest apartment in Burbank where, for years, any new comics coming to Hollywood would pay a visit to Stan for great conversation and whatever precious advice he might give.

Great photos. I couldn’t agree more with you about the genius that is Stan Laurel. ❤

I agree that Stan Laurel was a comic genius. He wrote and directed all the slapstick routines for the act. Pure genius 😊

As usual, wonderful collection! Thanks for sharing these!

Knowing they had the ability to photo shop even back then makes these pictures rather unbelievable.

I love vintage photos! Great job and thank you!

The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.

My grandmother remembered cleaning the stoop! ❤

Enjoyed. Thank you for sharing.

WOW what amazing photos! Thank you so much for sharing.

Fun history fact, Walter Christie invented the first prototype front-wheel drive car in 1904. He used his experimantal Front-Wheel Drive cars for racing. This concept also applied to the first motorized fire engines to do away with horse drawn fire engines. The transition from RWD to FWD began in 1975. By 1990, most car manufacturers removed almost all RWD drivetrains from their car offerings. The FWD drivetrain essentially became the industry standard for *most* mordern cars built within the last 30+ years.

What a great channel. I absolutely love peering into the past with these amazing photos. Outstanding work! New sub!

Beautiful

It's awesome to see actual photos from the past vs so many ai generated fake pictures posted by others. Well done, thank you.

Wonderful. Thank you 😊

Seeing the newspaper typesetter reminds me of the movie "The Ghost and Mr Chicken". 😂

Sugar ray was certainly stylish 😊

Life before maximising shareholder value was peak

Loved the variety & some of your comments were funny too

as usual, stunning photos

I liked the motorised stroller!!

I remember when you could buy a bottle os soda for a 5 cents,ya had to return the bottle when you done and some stores had you drink it at the location. I remember when they used to sell sweet rice candy,and cans would have a key to open it,and toys were made of metal,good times.

I knew a fella who played motorcycles polo he was in his 90s was in the first war , the storys he told me was amazing

Wonderful photos.....✨

Thanks for the presentation.

Nooooo way would I stand on edge of cliff 😂😂

The hoover dam turbine is quite beautiful, like a seashell.

Very nice collection

Come for the photos, stay for the relaxing piano music and overall zen.

The “mobile phones” guys were unraveling silkworms, I think!

That was really lovely ❤

Thank you.

Amazing

Nice! Very interesting.

The Newcastle castle comparison pics are so weird, the must have done massive restoration between 1895 and 22, there are all sorts of weird differences, it almost looks like someone built a replica building and then took 2 pics and compared, because there’s are sooo many little differences, they almost look like 2 different buildings

Not sure what "Perspective" this is suppose to put history into, but thank you for the video anyhow.

Many of those marble front steps in Baltimore still exist to this day

thank you

I think at 2 mins 10 seconds is stone street Prescot in Liverpool. Britain's 2nd narrowest street at 28 inches

Amazing variety of photos and the back ground music perfect 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Are you sure about that first picture - the Grand Canyon one? It looks as though it might have been posed in a studio with the "Grand Canyon" being a painted backdrop.

2:35 - The "golly-wog" in the stroller offers a lot more perspective than the fact it's motorized...

Wow, just found this channel. Thanks, I have always had a fascination with old photographs. Amazing. Been binge watching your channel for about an hour. I gotta stop and get busy, I’ll be back. Salute 🫡

Born in Baltimore city in 73’, I cleaned the stoop many of Saturday.

Is there anywhere i can buy these photos? I especially like the first Glacier Point photgraph.

Love the old cars! Cooler looking than cars today but wouldn’t wanna drive one can’t drive a stick shift

I can’t help but to think of these people in terms of how close they are to experiencing ww1 and ww2

Anyone notice the doll in the motorised pram? 😳😳😳

@ .29 It’s a scroll case

The one peering into the GC...was that the first drone prototype? You can hear the operator seeing how much further it will go....yes Stevie just a little bit further...I got you....Stevie 2 in the next stage of progression...I wonder how many Stevies are at the bottom of the GC?

I believe the 'everyone looking at their cellphones' one is picking silkworms out of their cocoons. Not positive, but it makes the most sense to me.

Measuring passage way widths. And if it is too narrow does he give the building owner 30 days to move the building 2" to the right or be fined?

Your caption at 7:14 made me laugh😂

where can you find all these masterpieces?

Not bad ⚡️

1:20 You can't fool me, I know a Sybian prototype when I see one.

at 2:02 the bicycle tires look nearly flat. Also, the sprockets get bigger and bigger as they go toward the back, wonder how that works?

I had to look up the cobra, I thought the stripes were painted on, but it is a King Cobra, and they do have chevron stripes! The cart Chaplin and pal are riding has a Smith motor wheel powering it with 1.5 horsepower!!

Wonderfull idea these photos given to us BUT ONLY BECAUSE OF TEXT AND YEAR on each. Or else we could not beleave anything or remember or learn or even study more about objects.thanks

Those chinese men are checking their fortune cookies. Lol

I don't know why RU-vid recommended this video to me. But thanks

interesting

3:18 never trust what you see, because theres always something more that no longer exist.

10 people on that bike

Btw la jamais contente was an electric car

I wish I had the memories of my past lives. What a WOW moment that would be.

3:31 It worth to note that Le Jamais Contente was an electric car! And you thought it was a more modern invention...

First one looks like a studio shot.

Probably could be shorter on screen because anyone can pause it but good pics.

They were still preparing newspapers with the lead type set characters in the 1970's.

I think the beefeaters were the inspiration for the which’s flying monkeys in Oz.

I see dead people.😮

Now show all the ones with the sky edited out to hide the airships lol

2:06 I'm guessing this is why certain areas of victorian slum housing were cleared? the rear alleys were to close, so they were a breeding ground for diseases. Where as others were found to be satisfactory.

1:56 a bicycle made for 12? I only count 10 :)

7:30 NOTICE ANYTHING

3:40 prepping a newspaper for printing in 1942 and I bet the spelling was more correct than the modern newspaper where it is just rushed out on a keyboard with predicted spelling.

1907? those bricks look like they are already a thousand years old?? what going on there? 2:11

Mobile phones in 1850s China 😂

Mobile phone in China 1850... Proof yet again that time travel exists!

7:26 Baltimore ain’t like that anymore unfortunately.

Oh dear this picture should have a warning for those who live in caves in their safe spaces, of the motorised stroller with child and a wolly gog in the pram......😁😁 All great pictures though, and all fresh pictures I have not seen before...

wow they had mobile phones in china in the 1950s super advanced

The music please? Thank you

Maybe it is because things are black and white but the streets look cleaner.

Bring them back and they would die from how horrible the world is today, and many would have thought that life was horrible then but today, yikes, Guys who are girls, girls who r boys, girls who r trees, what is it now 600 different sexes

First

8:14 -- I dunno, man. Stan Laurel was absolutely a great comic writer, but I still think Buster Keaton outranks him.

First photo. It's cold and there is snow at the grand canyon. Yup, clearly climate change....Pfffttt...🤣
