They were all very interesting in looking into our past so long ago. In my opinion the undercover cop looks a little like Mick Jagger

Horrified by the photo of the coal miners stuffed into an elevator that didn't even allow them to stand up. Reinforces the fact that coal miners have always had very dangerous working conditions.

The undercover cop wasn’t fitting in too well judging by the two passing ladies’ faces! 🤣

Life certainly was not easy in those days.

Who’s Annette Keltman? I’m assuming the writer means Annette Kellermann. She was an Australian champion swimmer, as well as working in vaudeville and the movie industry.

The photo of the Russian soldier clearly shows the effects PTSD has on a person.

LOVED the pics. Especially the Native American people. I had to chuckle at the undercover police officer. No one would have noticed today. The Russian army soldier certainly was very mysterious. Did he spend some time in a Gulag? How sad to see the miners. Thankfully, we have come a long way.
Thank you, I enjoyed!

Hope the elevator never jammed in Belgium. Hard working crews. Great pics

All interesting but the one of the little boy seeing a tv for the first time was the best.

lmoores, Look up the number of casualties the Red Army suffered and you will get some idea of why he looked that way.

All very interesting. That Soviet soldier must have been very stressed out.
Julie Allen
