These Poignant Vintage Photos Will Really Touch Your Soul

In this week's collection of Amazing Historical Photos you'll see some very poignant photos. Some of them will really speak to your soul. A gentle reminder that times were very different. Or were they ? Sometimes it seems we are doomed to repeat the worst parts of what we were... and are.

Another phenomenal selection of photos. There are so many i loved! This is how history should be taught instead of memorizing dates- but seeing & understanding

That first photo reminded me of The Andy Griffith Show Barney's Physical where he has to gain heighth and weight to keep his job. They strung him up in a similar fashion. Opie made a little money charging his friends to see.

Will human misery, madness, excessive ambitions and also carelessness ever come to an end? I enjoyed the photo of the boys jumping off a roof with an umbrella and that didn't seem to be crazy or really dangerous, especially at their age, but did they grow up to become more ''sensible'' adults than those men ''passing the time away'' in Fort Sheridan???

None of these photos touched my soul ....😂
