These are some very awkward photos from proms in the early 1990’s. You can tell that the photos are that old from the hairdos if nothing else. Those were the good old days.
This is quite a collection of bizarre black and white photos. Some of these just made me shake my head. They sort of make you think what facebook would have looked like if they'd had it back in the twenties and thirties. "Hey Everybody, check out Junior! He is only four years old and he can roll his own!" "See, Tiffany WAS a virgin, take that all you haters!"

These are some very good looking girls wearing the miniskirts from the 1960’s and 1970’s. Those were the days when the skirts were shorts and the girls were hot. There is something to be said for yesterday’s fashions.

These amazing old advertisements for computers are really funny to us now. These are from the days where they still had to convince us that computers weren't an instrument of the devil, and that we would find them affordable and useful. From promises of better productivity to making us think it was sexy to have a computer, the advertisers pimped out Leonardo DaVinci and Dom Delouise to hawk their wares.

These are some very old discount coupons. They were both placed in magazines a mailed directly to potential customers. The idea was to tempt people to try their product. By and large the businesses’ plan worked. This all started in the mid 1890s.

These days, you would never see such advertisements. But it is sure fun to look at them today. Some of the advertisements are for products that are still available, other are for products that have long been discontinued but they are all very weird.

These are some very old computer ads from Virginia Tech. Not only are the ads old, they are very funny. Some of them use sex to sell their antiquated PCs, others use humor. How did we ever get by with such inadequate equipment?

These retro photos of Paris are beautiful and amazing. They were taken in the beginning of the 20th century. They were black and white at first. But color was added to them later on.

If you were a fan of kit boxes, magazines and picture books 50 to 60 years ago, you might remember sci-fi illustrations by this artist. If not, take a look at these interesting retro images created by Shigeru Komatsuzaki who lived since 1915 till 2001. The graphics are cool! Remember that they were created in the 60’s and 70’s!

Here’s a little but very interesting collection of retro ads.
I know that a lot has changed compared to the 50’s and that our society was quite sexist but I didn’t know that it was sexist to that extent.
But despite all the sexism in the ads they are also funny. Don’t get me wrong, I mean, it’s a good thing that we evolve and can laugh at our stupidities made in the past. I am pretty sure, our descendants will laugh at our today’s stupidities in the future.

Such retro lunchboxes aren’t made any more. This is a real nostalgia, a reminder of popular cultures adored in 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, etc. These lunchboxes are cool as they don’t lack the imagery, details and imagination. I would like to have one of these!

Yesterday we posted amazing color retro photos, and today we propose you to check out this new set of vintage photos with celebrities of those times. These pictures are pure beauty without any Photoshop. Celebrities look so sexy! Enjoy!

These photos give one a retro look at our visions of the future from yesteryear thru the artwork from Soviet and European popular tech and science magazine illustrations dating from the ‘30s thru the ‘70s. In other words what we thought the future would look like when we thought about it years ago. They provide an interesting perspective of where we are and what we can expect in the future.

If you enjoyed “WTF Retro Pictures”, we think you will enjoy these as well. Can you imagine the nerve of the people playing tennis on the wing of a flying airplane, or the hilarity of an obese man riding a mini bike? And my but didn’t the girls go wild over rock and roll stars of days gone by. How ridiculous is it to have a bear taking a picture of a little boy or one of the first flying saucers? Equally amazing are a cowboy and his horse drinking from the same pond. Ah, the good old days. It is truly amazing that mankind survived them, yet we have such fond memories of them.

These unique prints from the Pennington Photo Studio were accidentally discovered just recently.
At the beginning of the last century, two photographers William Pennington and Lisle Updike traveled to four states: Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona, photographing the Indians.
It is these prints that you are going to see inside the post. Beautiful photographs and interestingly enough, they have an excellent quality. Look.

Even back then people liked to do funny and WTF things while taking pictures, it’s almost unbelievable ;)
If there was the Internet in those days, these pictures would become real hits and would spread throughout the global network in the wink of an eye ))

This is just amazing. I love such photos, especially when they date from back then.
These photos were made by Charles Weever Cushman, an amateur photographer who extensively documented the United States and other countries during 1938-1969.
