Any photo taken at ANY point in the 19th century was taken AFTER the Industrial Revolution took off, not BEFORE it. The Industrial Revolution started in 1700, with Jethro Tull's invention of the horse-drawn seed drill, which dramatically improved crop yields. In in 1712, Thomas Newcomen's steam engine made dramatic improvements in efficiency compared to the very primitive steam engine designed by Thomas Savery in 1698. That invention allowed for deep coal mines which would otherwise be unworkable to flooding, and greatly reduced the price of coal. Then came James Hargreaves' 'Spinning Jenny' in 1764-65, which allowed the industrialisation of the textile industry - and, in 1765, James Watt made yet another crucial breakthrough in the steam engine, whereby it not only produced greatly more power per ton of coal, but also had a rotary shaft output, making it idea for powering mass-production textile mills and engineering works. Long before 1840, the basis of modern transport was in place. In 1802, William Symington built the first practical steam vessel, the tug 'Charlotte Dundas', and in 1829, George Stephenson made steam loco hauled trains a viable and efficient proposition. Tull, Newcomen, Savery, Hargreaves and Stephenson were all English, and Watt and Symington were Scots.

[@justintothetruth]

Pay attention to the those pictures 1850-60’s . Well specifically the big cities. Where is everyone. There was not tv and not electricity. So even during the warm parts of the year you would have virtually house producing smoke a few times a day. So this takes away the explanation of a long exposure. So does the fact everyone is pretty much outside during some of the day but there is never and blurred spots where one person or the other is at a busy spot. AND PHOTOS LIKE THOSE AND IN EVERY CITY. BUT ONLY DURING THAT TIME. Not to mention that long exposures do not work like this. Well not exact. And well I guess I already did mention it. 🤔🧠👀 Oh and how come nobody ever says, “Hey! What is going on here? You have all these old buildings that we have never even come close to recreating. Like capital buildings and post offices, and many other. (many with what should be the ground floor covered up with dirt and windows on that are many times bricked up). And they seem to have been made to accommodate very tall people. Now all this would be POSSIBLY explainable. But when you consider the people back then had no power tools. The got from place to place by horse and wagon. And we believe or “boring” (cause they make it that way or try to)history, which is taught to us buy a government that we all know give us a sub par education. Why are we so quick to dismiss a person that tells us a different history? Especially if they have never lied to us. But our government does everyday. The people that think our government serves the people and cares for them is an example of them lying. It seems our 12+ years in state schools really puts the hurt on our ability to think critically.

[@justintothetruth]

WHOA, NELLY! That comment you left is terribly smelly. I am going to have to humbly and respectfully insist that you are not only being transparently disingenuous. Your comment is also suspiciously worded like someone who has a career in what is loosely defined as our “educational” system. And possibly even more unfortunate, if this is true, is the probability you yourself are perfectly content with how academia in general runs, operates, and has as its curriculum. Naturally, I am shooting from the hip there, and I quite possibly could be way off. But I would not bother you with an inquiry. To be blatantly up front, I doubt your honesty in the reply you have submitted. So, moving on unless you have something more on any of that. As to what opinions and beliefs you have regarding this test, or more specifically, it’s “outdated” content. So if you insist on that being the case. I at the same time would not of course, necessarily be in agreement with you without looking at whatever questions you say are, “out of date”. I think we would both do agree that is more of a detailed inspection that either of us has a desire to have. Either way, “it is not a hill I am prepared to die on” as they say. So, some may maybe outdated. Ahhhh, but the reason they would be outdated, is far more relevant and equally quite interesting, now that, that can has been opened. But before I blunder though the points regarding that I would that I would point out. An observation, an important point, possibly two, and a sprinkle of opinion. Regarding the date, those who had conceived this test, or more importantly, those who were not in on its creation nor had any other claim to its being in existence. I am going attempt to point out to anyone that reads this, which is …1 …2. 3? No? Ok, 2 people. (little attempt at humor there) This test was, if I am not mistaken, not only “pre” or given before, so independent of the formation of the openly socialist leaning educational system we find ourselves educated with today. And at this point I would like to bring to attention possibly this systems biggest success. That being the ability to give a nations people sub par education, this very few would disagree on. But that is not a success. Obviously not. Where those that not just started but continued to play a critical role in the system we have today did was instill a belief it this nation’s people that any views, ideas, insights, open mindedness and even critical thought were and continue to be at the mercy of what Americans were taught in their government controlled schools. Even while almost every American at the same time agrees that our schools are not competent in the “education” they and those coming after are receiving. This is absolutely amazingly ridiculous. It totally meets any definition anyone could find to explain the word bazaar.

[@Theodisc]

_«Le Zouave»_ is a french name for Zig-Zag _papiers à cigarettes_ and more importantly that swarthy dude on the little packet which is their brand mascot. "The story goes like this: during the siege of Sevastopol, a young Zouave narrowly avoided being struck by a stray bullet. Though the soldier himself remained unscathed, the bullet shattered his clay pipe. Being rather ingenious, and not wanting to go without his tobacco, the clever Zouave tore off a strip from his bag of gunpowder and used it to roll a cigarette. The myth spread around France for years until 1879 when Zig-Zag decided to pay tribute to the resourcefulness of that unknown Zouave by creating their now famous logo out of his potential likeness." He is an internationally recognised "face", one which has had different likenesses over the years, one being more realistic and another like the one we know but with a lit fag dangling from his lips (I guess this became too pc for today's cancel culturals (tseh!)). I always thought he was a greek, from when we were little more than slaves under the ottoman yoke, or an arab, which they do speak in the Magreb, but now I know about his history, and your image of these Zouaves has better educated me.

The film they had was very slow. To take a photo required an exposure of at least 2 or 3 minutes. So if you wanted to appear in a photo you had to hold absolutely still for that time. Otherwise you don't show up. So there could be people, horses etc passing by that never registered. Have seen one old street scene where the only people are a man getting a shoe shine and the shine boy. They boy's arms are blurred because they were moving but the 2 people held still long enough to get photographed, everyone else failed to register.

I think your dates are off a bit. The industrial revolution began at Slater Mill Pawtucket Rhode Island in 1793 and was in full swing within 20 years, long before your photos were taken. The industrial revolution is defined as the beginning of mass production of manufactured goods. Textiles were the first to be mass produced. By 1810-1820 Rhode Island and Massachusetts were mass producing every conceivable manufactured item from textiles to silverwares, glass wares, ceramic wares and all manner of metal wares and items made from wood. Factories abounded throughout both states. Mass production did eventually make it's way to other states but it started in Southern New England. In Natick Mass my great, great, great, great grandfather was one of hundreds of shoe makers mass producing shoes in that period. In Taunton MA silver and copper goods were mass produced by 1830. Jewelry production was in full swing in southeastern MA and Rhode island by 1840. Glass factories existed in Boston, New Bedford and Sandwich by 1820. I could go on but I think you get the idea.

Very interesting. I thought photos weren't until later 1800s but I see first one was 1826 or 1827. Nice photos. History

Napoleon III was kind of a let-down. But the other pics were cool.
