Early 1900s in Colour

GEORGEOUS STUFF!

In the early part of the 20th century French-Jewish capitalist Albert Kahn set about to collect a photographic record of the world, the images were held in an 'Archive of the Planet'. Before the 1929 stock market crash he was able to amass a collection of 72,000 autochrome plates, the first industrial process for true color photography.

Thanks, Uncle K, for sharing this:

"This is the new "wear your seat belt" ad the UK is doing - started by some dude not hired to do it, but because the cause is important to him, he came up with the idea, and now its being hailed across the world as a "beautiful" commercial."
