COLOR PHOTOS OF A WAR we remember in black-and-white: The Officers' Club has some color photos of World War II from the Library of Congress's big exhibit of color photos by the famous FSA photographers from 1939-1943.
UPDATE: And here are color photos from the First World War.
Great post! A good look back at what America once was.
I can't stop looking at those color World War I photos.
Thanks for this post. Fascinating!!
Did they even have color film back in those days? I thought color photos from that era had the color painted on. Great photos, by the way. We need to never forget our history.
