Our passion for photography is only matched by our love of history and everything that’s vintage. We firmly believe that only a solid grasp of history can help us avoid repeating the mistakes of the past and lead to a better future for everyone. And there’s nothing like a direct comparison to really show us how much time and life have changed things.
When thinking about the past, it feels like a surreal reality that sometimes could be more difficult to imagine than the future. But seeing photos from 1800 and 1900 feels even weirder since it is actual proof of it happening. And more importantly, people's lives don't seem to be boring or dull. On the contrary, they look risky, weird, fun, and simply put - entertaining to my futuristic human eyes. I am sure, if these people had the internet back then, we would be greeted with quality memes from past times. So, after all, we are not that different, just with other possibilities.

Times change. Nothing remains the same forever. But as you can see from these heartwarming pictures compiled by Bored Panda, one thing doesn't change no matter how much time passes, and that's love.

Like a Diane Arbus image this has it all Old radio with floral wallpaper She sits on the chair next to him and he has suspenders and bow tie. She looks like his doll. 3.50"X3.50" good condition I often show a high contrast close up of image first to see details but actual image tones and look will appear closer to second image. Shipping is $1.50 for unlimited small photos. photos are securely mailed in sealed glassine envelopes with cardboard. I have been selling vintage photos online for 5 years and have customer service as my highest priority. I do my best to sell clean perfect photos but often vintage photos have scrapbook on back or some dry paste and that often is unavoidable. I am an archivist as well so often will wash and blot dry photos if possible. I also do my best to describe every detail and if you have question still, then write. I am happy to respond. thanks for shopping with Clancy's Classics
