Rare World War I Color Photos

Mon, 22 Oct 2007 16:46:58 +0000

Over at srsly cool, rare color photos from World War I have been posted.

Little is known about each individual photo, they are believed to be digitally coloured. During WW1 colour photography was in it's infancy, pioneered by photographer Jean-Baptiste Tournassoud using Autochrome plates invented by the Lumiere brothers. These photos are either digitally remastered or works by Tournassoud.

Update: I originally located these photos at a forum but thanks to digg have since found a more descriptive source. I have updated the information on all of the photos but sadly the real details for most have been lost in time.

I'm sure these WWII Nazi tank manuals caught the attention of many incoming German soldiers. They didn't know how to drive a tank, but they sure knew how to mingle with the ladies.
