I've lost many hours digging through the archives. My favorites are the pictures of Pittsburgh (of course) and the ones that are just family snapshots. @jive turkey, LOVE shorpy.

I guess I still can't imagine seeing glimpses of life from 70 or 100 years ago the way that they might have looked. @kent, even obviously dated color photos aren’t as shocking as these to me, for whatever reason.

Every time I look at one, I have to keep telling myself what year they were taken in because I can hardly wrap my mind around seeing that time period in full color. Have you ever been to Shorpy? Hi-res old photos. Also amazing. http://www.shorpy.com/ Those photos BLOW MY MIND.

I grew up with color photographs but you could date the prints by how the color faded towards brown, or occasionally when you hit a batch of unfortunate film chemstry, shade off into greens or reds.
