Historical photographs always hold up a mirror to us. Where we are now, how it used to be, how much everything has changed. See photos from the last century that surprise on many levels. Some because of the changes that have occurred, others because they are so rare or fascinating. But they all remind us that even today's times will pass once and change fundamentally.
