HistoryPhotos is for photographs (or, if it can be found, film) of the past, recent or distant! Give us a little snapshot of history!
Rules
- Be respectful and inclusive.
- No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
- Foster a continuous learning environment.
- No genocide or atrocity denialism.
- Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

MODERATORS
I love how genuine their expressions are in the photos where they're smiling. Such a cool feeling of connection to people from 130 years ago.
Cute!
Please sit still and don't smile for 30 seconds.
This always makes me think of the scene from A Million Ways to Die in the West.
I looked for a clip, but I couldn’t find one!
