This short video (just over five minutes long) contains a real mixture of historical photos, the earliest ones taken in the 1890s. It covers a variety of subjects, from the Depression Era, to WW2 and later. I have not seen any of them previously.

Julie and I once ate dinner at a table in the water not unlike that. It was a beachside restaurant in Bodrum, Turkey. 🙂
