Oh man, the early TV remote control was a real struggle for children born before 1980. I am a survivor of this tragedy.

I didn't mind being the remote so much as I minded sometimes being the antenna!

The little mechanic lying in the street working on his “car”. The little girl’s was parked beside his. Glad that drivers were mindful of the children lying in the road. That poor horse and the boys perched on top of the mountain of suitcases. Love History and these photos. The imitation Sphinx actually had a nose! Sad about the fire and pictures of war. Was astonished about how crowded and crushed together the housing and buildings were. Loved the Arizona photo the best.

These photos were so awesome! Thanks for uploading.

These are imperative truths about our past. They lived loved and danced. They sang they saw and they cried. And now truly we have walked down the centuries together. It’s surreal to say the least.

I love this channel. Fantastic, thought-provoking puctures, beautiful music, multiple "Nopes," some of which make me very queasy. Thank you, Mark. These clips must take a great deal of hard work. Much appreciated 😊

Thats cruel the poor horse pulling all the cases and boys

Most impressive. And the musical score is spot on. The video actually made me sad. Not sure why (maybe the musical score? :). More than likely thinking of the days of so many lives, and my life, gone by... Great vid. 👍 Satifies, and stirs, a lot of curiosity. I'll be watching it again. And again... Thank you.

The Fort Apache picture showed how beautiful our country was before roadways and cars and buildings….😢❤

"early tv remote control".... Yeah, I am from the 80's but I was me too at one time. I was also the lawnmower and the dishwasher. Most people seem surprised at the fact that we had 3 dishwashers in my house, if you arent including my mom.

Great pictures!!

Some of the best photos I have ever seen here

The blast pattern of the railway gun almost looks like a flower...and I'd have to give a NOPE to the telephone lineman.

Absolutely love watching these videos in the morning. The captions make me laugh. Also, very cool to see how life was in the past. Great job. Keep them coming.

0:23 The mother's face is so heart-wrenching... 😢

The last photo of Pt. Lookout hit home. I was born and raised in Chattanooga,TN and have been on Lookout Mtn several times. Never stood on the edge. That would be a NOPE!

3:21 How strong was that horse?

Although some of the captions for the photographs are irksome to me, the images themselves are very interesting. It would be nice if the sources for the photographs could be listed. Some of these could lead to research topics for students (or anyone wanting to know more.) Having sources of the images listed would then help such research and/or curiosity. Just so it's clear, I am happy these are available to view and appreciate the chance to see them. The music is pleasant and interesting without being distracting.

Wow. Seriously awesome photos. I can totally appreciate the remote control from the 1970s.

Gorgeous music

I love these old photos.

The look of the mother with her son going to war is tearful

I was a remote control

Another terrific collection. Th Rotary Javelin Personal Helicopter and the Point Lookout, Tn. really blew my mind! Once again, thank you for sharing!

Awesome music choice for some amazing pictures!

3:04 tv remote - I used to sit near the TV, stretch out my leg, and turn the volume down during the commercials 😋🌷🌱📺

Wonder if that young soldier came back to his Mum. Hope so. So many didn't! It's so strange to see how dangerous some things were about everyday life. The mechanics and those young schoolboys perched on those suitcases. A fall would have been possibly fatal. No health and safety then.!

I like history. Good job with this. I like photo of young WW1 soldier and mother at 0:22 before going to war. You know what the mother is thinking...If she will see her son alive again! Plus, at 8:39 I have heard about Relna Brewster Mcrae. I lift weights also. Her good friend, Pudgy Stockton often joined her doing the same thing on the beach! Thanks for the upload.

Watching your channel is my new favorite thing to do ❣️

Considering the young soldier & his mother: My uncle Lawrence never came back from WW II. He died in Italy. They said my great grandmother never recovered & was dead within 2 years. He was 1 of 8 children, but the baby of the family. Lawrence's brother, my Uncle Lloyd was an alcoholic when he came back. Dad said that even working in the fields, he'd still drink all day. He disappeared in the 50s and 60s for 15 years. The family got a phone call from him out of the blue. He was a field hand in Montana and said "Will you please come get me?" Of course they did. I sure loved Uncle Lloyd. He was so sweet to me. And he lived to hold my son in 1991. Dad said one of the worst thrashings he ever got in his life was after the war when he cast some firecrackers on the ground behind uncle Lloyd on 4th of July. He said uncle Lloyd hit the deck, and came up after, madder than a fury!

Early remote control! As was I in the 70's 😂

~*~ Just Wonderful ~*~ Thank You so Much for Sharing History with all of us ~*

4:30 that grocery list sure would come in handy

Finally a chance to observe all aspects of each photo. Thank you.❤

Cool pic of people boarding an airship

The 1923 FA cup final on Wembley info seems to be exaggerated. According to British sources, the official attendance was 126,047, but it is estimated over 200,000 people were actually present, not 300,000.

thanks , very cool

I lived near crystal Palace. Beautiful park

Love the first remote control in the 70's. Reminds me of myself and brothers. Also I remember with the rabbit ears. We had to always adjust them and stand there until it was perfect! Lmbo

I thought I was the first T.V remote control in the 70s. Dad thought I Was for sure.

3:30 I feel sorry for that poor horse.

The images, of course, can be found anywhere but it’s how they’re strung together that makes the difference. Then we had the piano. Drew me in and got me wondering what it was and who’d written it. Turns out I didn’t have far to look. Add one new subscriber.

Favorite photos: the Chrystal Palace in London. the Zeppilen docking at the building tower & gangplank

'The Just Divorced' sign guy was a hoot. And the Marilyn Monroe' stunt woman from 1938. Marilyn Monroe don't think even started making films until 1947 and I don't believe she ever need a stuntwoman, as I don't believe she was ever an action movie staple, She did work in a Airplane factory in the early 40's building airplanes and her picture appeared in a newsletter which was how she came to Hollywood's attention, or something to that effect.

Très bon choix musical.

2:35... Safe? Didn't chock the wheels. 7:42.. We used to call that " belly flopping". 9:31... Kind of a scary place to live if you're a sleepwalker. 🙏❤☺

3:05 - I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one to use his kid brother to change channels.

My dad’s uncle died in WWI in France in September 1918.

"The Civil War Rodman Gun" is actually a term for any gun designed by a man named Rodman. All of the guns were made using a new tecnique that made them stronger than all previous guns and they were considered "true guns"......."Rodman guns were true guns that did not have a howitzer-like powder chamber" per wiki. The wiki on the "Rodman guns" is actually pretty interesting if you are into that sort of thing. I think its amazing that Rodman could conceive the process of making a gun in the way that he did, it was really extensive and clever.

Love the reusable groceries list😂❤❤❤

The "nope" photos should also say, "taken moments before fall and death," or "do not try this at home kids!" 😂

I was a 70's TV remote controller

7:09 those phone repairmen sure coulda used a Bucket truck

Nice collection. I was the remote control and sometimes the antenna in the '50's.

I like the idea of the reusable grocery list, analog style

I can relate to the remote control kid

Those Empire State Building steel workers were some of the bravest people on the planet. Right up there with Bearing sea crab fishermen. 😮

1:22 I didn't know that happened. Robert Duvall wears a cue card. 5:07, 6:08, 9:08, 9:24 I can't believe that they didn't give their workers parachutes. 8:53 We need our own personal helicopters now.

4:28 actually that could be practical today as well.

Picture @ 6:23 Crystal Palace, Anybody know what the tower in the background was?

Not one of the student nurses from 1938 is wearing glasses. Just an observation. I know they are young, but contacts were not yet in general use at the time, either. I would think that someone in a group that size would wear glasses.

The 1950's grocery list was great! But the poor overloaded horse and the many people in high places are things I don't want to see again.

wow Winnipeg made the list?

That poor horse got to me having to pull all the weight.💔

I was a remote control and antenna. To some extent, I am still.

I was also an early 1970s version tv remote. My mother used to say that's why she had kids. I never thought it was funny. She still thinks it's funny. Smh.

9:00 looks like something James Bond would use.

The music that accompanies this is beautiful, but somehow sad to me.

👏👏👏

I hope the young soldier made it home

The mindset of the "Just Divorced" guy - make two signs and keep both.

And a.monster size *"NOPE!!!!*" to the guys doing construction work walking on those.iron bars building New York City's Empire State Building...🤔🤔🤔😐

..out of curiosity...”who’s taking those photos....?

That "little mechanic" , what is he working on that seems to have a woman's gorgeous leg kicked up in the back of the photo?

Much better music

Loved the background music! What is the name of it?

Marilyn Monroe wasn't making movies in the 1930's.

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

3:39 He's just just about to enter an incredible nightmare. The Germans took 5,000,000 Soviet prisoners of war and over 3,000,000 of them died in captivity, worked and starved to death. 😞

I need a personal helicopter.

3:35 Wait!!!!!! One Horse!!!! At least he’s a big horse like Clydesdales, they’re built for heavy work. They’re called draft horses and they are big ! 🐴🦬🌷🌱

The flooded Pantheon (5:00) was because of global warming, of course.

When people truly had to WORK for a living.

Men just have no fear when it comes to heights :( Imagine doing all that knowing nothing will catch you????? :O

Notice how none of the nurses are doing tik tok dances? Oh how times were better.

You’re not gonna say the name?

The music was more interesting than these old black n white photos.

Nice. We been there and don e that.

too small the writing wont read on a phone
