We often take for granted that we can literally record everything from what we ate for breakfast to a lunar eclipse on our phones. For most of history, this would have to be done from an artist's memory or, later, with a not at all cheap or accessible camera.
The aptly named “Old Historical Photos” Facebook page is dedicated to exactly that, sharing cool pictures taken in the past. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
