There are countless iconic historical images out there that most people are familiar with. For example, you’ve probably seen the soldiers who put up the flag in Iwo Jima in World War II, which is from Joe Rosenthal. Likewise, there’s the sailor who kissed the woman in Times Square from Alfred Eisenstadt.

These images resonate with us and have stood the test of time. However, those aren’t the only ones. Typically, photographs can give everyone a taste of the past. They might not be as famous, but they’ll probably fascinate you because they offer a glimpse into a world no longer around.
