No kidding.
They had photography back then?
I though it was in the beginning of the 1900s.

they had it in the mid 1800s i believe, but 1880s for sure - came out earlier

that is pretty early, its cool though, at first i read 1988 and thought to myself, why post this lol then my mind cleared up

My family has pics of our civil war hero's in the family from the 1870's so there are some old pics out there.


But man a pic of her is far out. Why she she so small
