I've always found it amazing how much more "real" color photos of history seem. For example, this photo was taken in either 1942 or 1943, but it looks like it could've been taken yesterday.

I'll have to check out this exhibit next time I'm downtown at the Library of Congress. VERY cool.

Awesome stuff there, I have a need for these kind of pics for a Mutants and Masterminds game, so thanks for the tip.
