Candy at last



This wonderful photo is reminiscent of the U.S. on Black Fridays. All of these people are rushing inside a sweet shop on the day that sweet rationing ended in England, 1953.

Since the start of World War II, sweets had been rationed alongside many other items including eggs, milk and sugar. The year that the sweet ration ended, sales of confectionary increased by £100 million. Like the children in this photo, people all across the country queued to get their candy on the day the ration ended

Humanity


World War II was a difficult time for everyone, including the animals. Many of these animals were creatures that had been transported to Europe prior to the war. This photograph shows a citizen taking care of a curious looking bird. The bird was from Berlin Zoo and was just one of the many animals that ended up in the care of citizens as the Soviet troops approached Berlin in 1945. Imagine trying to use the bathroom with this crazy creature swanning about

Potato Sack Marilyn

In 1951, Marilyn Monroe was snapped wearing a low-cut red dress to a party. The next day, a columnist slated her and claimed that she looked "cheap and vulgar." He then commented that she would have looked more decent in a potato sack than in her red dress.


Marilyn had her own special way of responding to critics and dealt with his harsh comments with her wicked sense of humor. She simply responded with this brilliant photo proving that even in a potato sack, she still looks impossibly amazing

Moving a 5MB hard drive



In this photograph, at least four men are struggling to maneuver the hard drive onto a truck. The IBM Model could hold 5 MB of storage which is about 6 images worth. A company could lease the storage for $3,200 a month which is probably around $30,000 today when you account for inflation!. The average smartphone has up to a total of 100000 MB

The 1966 Blizzard



In 1966, a terrible blizzard swept across the United States and the East side of the Rocky Mountains.

The blizzard bought heavy snowfall and temperatures that reached record lows. At least 142 people died during the blizzard and 31 of these froze to death. Many people also died in fires that started while people were desperately trying to heat their homes. By the time the storm eased, the death toll had reached 201. This photo illustrates just how deep the snow levels reached.

Private Concert
This spectacular image depicts Louis Armstrong serenading his wife Lucille in Egypt, 1961.

In this picture, he is standing with wife in front of the great Sphynx. To receive a private concert from one of the greatest jazz players of all in time on one of the world's most incredible locations is quite something

Franceska Mann
The brave Franceska Mann (pictures) was a Polish-Jewish dancer who was taken to Auschwitz in 1943. When she was ordered to strip, she did so in a provocative manner which momentarily distracted the guards. While they were admiring her physique, she quickly grabbed the roll call officer's gun and shot him, killing him instantly. She wounded one other guard and her bravery inspired other prisoners to join her rebellion. Unfortunately, the rebellion was unsuccessful and all the prisoners who partook in the rebellion were shot dead

Ms Perfect posture 1956



In May, 1956, a beauty contest was hosted at a chiropractic convention in Chicago. This photo displays the three proud winners with their trophies for perfect posture

The contest winners were picked based on the beauty of their X-rays and their standing posture. Each girl had to stand on a pair of scales with one foot on each. The three winners distributed their weight equally on each meaning they had the correct standing posture. The event was hosted to improve the reputation of chiropractic, which was a relatively new profession at the time

Honoring the Animals


This remarkable photo from 1918 depicts American Soldiers paying tribute to the millions of horses, donkeys and mules that were killed during WW1.

In addition to the thousands of soldiers who were killed during the first great war, over 8 million horses, donkeys and mules were brutally slaughtered in battle




In this photograph, American soldiers pay tribute to the animals who helped them win the war. They have joined together to form a horse's head and this moving photograph commemorates the forgotten animals who gave their lives to the nation.

Albert Einstein's posits the theory of relativity


In 1946

Albert Einstein traveled to the Lincoln University in Pennsylvania to teach at the first school in America to grant college degrees to black students.


While teaching at the university, Einstein gave a powerful speech in which he described racism as “a disease of white people.” He added, “I do not intend to be quiet about it.” As a member of the Jewish community in 1940s Europe, Einstein was familiar with the horrendous outcomes of racist attitudes. Here, he is giving a lecture on his theory of relativity to Lincoln students.

Well done bro, this is an insight to show how bad War is and for the young people wishing for war like it's a celebrated or heroic thing to see. I was surprised how well documented the ww2 was, when I watched the 4 parts documentary "Apocalypse: The second World War". You can check it out, if you're willing to see more of this or know more bout the events as it was happening, maybe learn a thing or two.
I definately will, and thank you , hope you have a great blissful morning.

War is human nature, it is inevitable. For peace to rule, there has to be war. Humans will always find war when there is peace for a very long time either conciousily or unconciously
