Numerous historical events merit a second look. While old photographs were printed in black and white, we now have the technology to colorize them! The monochrome scheme, in our opinion, did not do them justice at all. We’re grateful that someone else had the foresight to colorize these old photographs. They’re entertaining to look at and will take you down memory lane. A word of caution: some of these images are not suitable for all viewers. It’s a good idea to tread carefully!
Mata Hari Was A True Icon
Mata Hari was a beautiful spy and dancer who took the world by storm. She’s been referred to as a feminist, a courtesan, and a spy, among other things. Regardless of these labels, we all know how difficult it is to replicate her story. She had no qualms about jumping into risky endeavors, even if it did lead to her demise. The National Ballet’s director and choreographer, Ted Brandsen, had this to say about her: “What fascinated us is the story of a woman with an incredible lust for life and a powerful instinct to survive, and to reinvent herself and to transform herself. She had a lot of horrible things happen to her and she managed to somehow give a spin to it and find her way out.”

Stock Market Crash On Black Tuesday
The United States of America hit rock bottom on Black Tuesday when Wall Street traders lost billions of dollars and investors were devastated in a single day. On October 29, 1929, fewer than 16 million shares were traded. It was the final day of a tumultuous six-day period during which investment bankers attempted to keep the market under control by purchasing large blocks of stock. On this day, prices plummeted to zero. It emptied bank accounts and contributed to the demise of the industrialized world, plunging the United States into what is now known as the Great Depression.
