Collection of Famous Retro Photos (98 pics)

immortalized by images such greatness!

Fantastic... There's a certain 'patina' to vintage photography photoshop can never re-create.

Patina is Green, unless you're speaking in reference to aging in which you are correct sir, I loved them all except "MAT" & "Bob" in the 5th pic down

AHHH THE HAIR>> IT BURNS!!!

nice set

Awesome, I love retro pics, really good collection

5th one down are 2 members in the cast of Freaks (1932).
Prince Rabdian Snake Man or The Human Torso and
Johnny Eck Half Boy. I know a few others but I'm kinda lazy.

Great post, some obvious and no caption needed, others slightly more obscure.

Kirk's car is awesome . Last pic is a huge german scoot , a henkel i think .

I'd have to agree. All we can do is wonder!

Nice pix!

Ah, Raquel Welch

The picture of the old men with gray beards has 17 Nobel prize winners in it and one two time winner, Madame Curie. At the conference the upstart Heisenberg introduced his Uncertainty theory about which Einstein said "God does not play with dice!". Unfortunately, no one hears about Niels Bohr's retort, "Albert, stop telling God what to do!" (Einstein and Bohr were lifelong friends)

good shit

That's the same shit from South Park, taking all the gay stuff of course

The very first pic was used as an album cover for a cheapo compilation of country trucker songs. I never bought it since all the music was hideous but I remember seeing it because I thought the slut on the cover was hot.

Hey, I was a teenager, whadya expect?

On second thought, now that I'm 50, I still think the slut is hot!
