An All New Epic Collection of Rare Vintage Photos

[@rockyroad7345]

Breathtaking collection! The lion riding side car in the velodrome is my favorite.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Same here!

[@fredwood1490]

@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos That lion really did look as though he were enjoying himself! Maybe as much as the Driver. Maybe more.

That image of Hitchcock as Ringo Starr was as bizarre as it was funny. Maybe present-day Ringo could put a fake belly under a suit and do a Hitchcock profile impersonation as payback.

[@noncompliant4316]

The Best Catcher in Baseball History is a man (probably Irish) with his coracle (a wooden-framed skin/leather-covered boat).

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

This is correct.

[@blueseeker2]

Or Welsh

[@noncompliant4316]

@@blueseeker2 True!

[@cheshirebowman4465]

Please don't expect an American to know what a Coracle is. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Im British-American and didn't know what a coracle was until I found this photo. Very interesting story but every week I put one lighthearted caption on a photo just to have fun... This was this weeks photo and silly caption. Apparently, most of the comments from this week's video seem to be from people who don't realize that ... and they actually thought I seriously thought this was a glove .... ROFL !!!@@cheshirebowman4465

[@johnorchard4]

These are really inmteresting photographs. I am not convinced about some of the captions though!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Neither am I … and I write them

[@janetteveronica402]

Enjoyed this thank you

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Thank you for watching 🤗

[@will-i-am-not]

Best glove catcher, that's not a glove it's a coracal boat

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

My regular viewers are aware that I occasionally throw in a humorous caption just to break things up and have some fun. Some people aren’t aware, others don’t have a sense of humor…. Some think I’m not funny. Those last ones are wrong 😃

[@blackrabbit212]

Some of us appreciate your drole sense of humour!

With all those telephone wires in NYC it's amazing that there was so much snow on the ground!!

Great photos ,we have come a long way in technology 🙂

Indeed, when you think of what artificial intelligence is already capable of it makes you think.

[@davebutterworth5800]

The 'catchers mitt' is actually a coracle!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

It was humor … and humor is not for everyone 🤣

Hitchcock looks more like Moe from the three stooges than Ringo

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I thought the same thing !!

[@oaxaca1948]

all those people want to watch a public hanging. how gross and unhuman.

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Unfortunately, its very human. For centuries executions were the biggest draw at events. If you were to hold a live execution at any one of the world's giant stadiums today, I'd wager that tickets would sell out faster than a Michael Jackson concert. Not a nice thought but it's who we are I'm afraid.

[@Thomasnmi]

​@@AmazingHistoricalPhotosI think you are right

[@davidmarsh1167]

That huge baseball catcher is a Welsh Corical. A small boat. Americans!

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

Humor … it’s not for everyone !

[@tjeffpowellful]

"The best baseball catcher...." at 2.22 is a man carrying a coracle or is the caption supposed to be a joke?

[@giorgiotribastone7070]

Motorcycle and lion let think about that for second ok Hellllll noooooo lol lol

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

I’m still thinking it’s fake … but I can’t disprove its authenticity. Crazy if it is real !

[@giorgiotribastone7070]

@@AmazingHistoricalPhotos oh ok yea right lol

[@mademoiselledusfonctionell1609]

It is sad so see what masses came to see executions. I hope it has got more to do with our fear of death than our wish to see spectacles (such as motorcycling in a cylinder with a lion in the sidecar).

[@AmazingHistoricalPhotos]

It's the spectacle. Romans went to the Circus not to see chariots race .. but to see crashes (known then as "Shipwrecks") They went to the amphitheater to see blood. Executions have existed since day one ... and will still exist at the end of humanity. There will always be someone wanting to watch it.

[@Thomasnmi]

​@@AmazingHistoricalPhotosdo people watch auto races for the race or the accidents? I suspect the latter

[@WVgrl59]

"On August 14, 1936, an African-American man named Rainey Bethea was publicly hanged in Owensboro, Kentucky. Bethea was convicted of raping and killing Lischia Edwards, a 70-year-old woman, and confessed to the crime. In 1938, Kentucky abolished hanging after as many as 20,000 people witnessed Bethea's execution."

[@davidschumaker8107]

Mark, you have that caption all wrong! That was actually a new sport that the Swedes invented called hockey polo! Brass balls required!
