We always get curious to know things about past history. Photographer during that time captured life’s weaknesses as well as its excellence in ways no other medium could. And whether that be war, famine, or the glamour of Hollywood, history, as we know it today, is largely based on photographic documents. Here we bought rarest photos from the past which will make you day and impress you all as well.

Children For Sale

Ray and Lucille Chalifoux did not intend to do so. They were helpless and had to part ways with their children because they weren't able to pay rent.

The picture was first published by The Vidette-Messenger of Valparaiso and was soon famous when many national papers picked it.

Some of the siblings reunited, with one soaring in her analysis of her adoptive mother’s actions, years later. She said to the North West Indiana Times, Sue Chalifoux, now 67, said, “I hope she burns in hell.”



Soldier In The War

Captured by Associated Press photojournalist Horst-Faas in Vietnam, 1965, this picture shows a different side of the war.

You adore the handsome young face of the man and yet you can't ignore that he is a soldier fighting a war.

V-J day

It was a random nurse that the sailor kissed. Yes, when American navy soldiers returned from battle in the August of 1945, to celebrate V-J day, a sailor, named Alfred took it upon himself to kiss a nearby nurse.

Now, 92 Alfred said to the Time Magazine, jokingly that his wife was in the background when he kissed the nurse. “I remember what those nurses did out there….is the reason I grabbed that nurse,” he explained.



Strict Modesty

In early 1900s America limited female bathers to only wearing traditional swimwear garments. Which led to many arrests and fines for anyone showing anything shorter than the measurements permitted.

But the best part was that not only women but also men had to follow the strict modesty. It wasn’t until 1937 that males were allowed to go topless on a beach.

Audrey's friend

This is a picture of a friend of Audrey Hepburn. The beautiful, yet not the common photo was taken when she was out with her pet deer ‘Ip’ in Beverley Hills, 1958.



Eiffel Tower under construction

In 1888, Gustave Eiffel oversaw construction of the Eiffel Tower in preparation for its entry into the 1889 worlds fair.

However, over a hundred years later, the tower, which was never intended to remain in place, has since become a global icon for the capital.
