28 Historical Photos Brought To Life With a Touch of Color

See history live you've never seen it before, in high definition and colorized. Black and white photos don't always convey the real essence of history. They leave out the colors and dyes of people's clothing. They wash together the wrinkles on people's faces. And they just don't quite 'pop' like colorized photos do. So see history in the way it was, with this fascinating collection of pictures from way back when.
