Rare color photos from 1910 (take red, take green, take blue BW shot)
image 24 is extremely dwarfy.

These images are really impressive. Seeing thriving cities without power lines and old machinery when it was new is really cool.

Those were awesome.  Thanks for posting :)

I'd never have imagined a water skin like that.  I guess the clue is in the name.

These are great photographs.  Looking at these made me realize how our perception of the past are influenced by the images left behind.

I used to think the world was black and white until 1950!  :o

I really want that one as a "when". I want "grubs", and "virgin woman" to turn into a dragon. and monkey children to suddenly sprout wings. And I want the Dwarven Mutant Academy to only gain their powers upon reaching puberty. I also have a whole host of odd creatures that only make sense if I divide them into children and adults.

Also, tadpoles.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Glad you like the pictures. Someone I follow on twitter had retweeted about them.

I'm actually really impressed at the quality of them. Have these gone through any enhancements or restorations? Or are they straight projections from the originals?
Either way, they're pretty awesome.
