Interesting, Odd, or Funny Old-Timey Photos -

[SeaPancake]

I want Great-Great Grandpa Batman.

So dig through your bookmarked /r/OldSchoolCool and Cracked articles and weird shit you've found while perusing Victorian erotica and give it to me.

Believe these were taken in WWII, though unsure about the specifics and details that go beyond that.

This one's not exactly "old-timey," yet i do find it quite a peculiar shot to say the least:

edit: and no, the pun was initially not intended

Friend sent me this. She saw it in Myer - a department store - in Canberra, 'Straylia. I expressed doubt and she said it was also on a reddit Canberra - so its genuine. I wonder if she is trying to tell me something?
Shit ... just necroed this thread

Photos from sideshow acts seems like cheating, but you just don't see that around any more.
