- See what everyday America looked like 120 years ago in these stunning color photos!
Welcome back to The History Lounge! In today’s video, we have the pleasure of delving into a treasure trove of rare old photographs from locations all around the United States. These photos are all over 100 years old, taken near the turn of the last century. And today, we’ll be seeing these vintage scenes for the first time in stunning color!
At the time these photographs were taken, most Americans were lighting their homes with candles and oil lamps, getting around via horse & buggy, and communicating with one another through letters, telegrams, and face-to-face conversations.
It’s fun to look back at these simpler times and consider how the lives of these people were so different from our own - and yet, similar in many ways as well.
Thanks for joining me as we, again, peer through a window into the past, and get a look at what life was like in early-1900s America!

GORGEOUS PICTURES EXCELLENT
America. Were we not just grand back then? Think of what we built and accomplished in such a short time.
we .??? How did American banks develop pools of investment money for industry and infrastructure? Who might accept sub standard wage rates to build what YOU accomplished.?
@@donofon1014 That sounds like some Marxist claptrap. Everyone of my great grandparents, grandparents and parents helped build this country, from railroads, mercantiles, butcher shops, hardware men and restaurant supply companies. They didn’t complain when they used their hard work and hands. They earned their money.
@nvs4u2 :Gen zers. I watched a utube vid not long ago where some young woman said "why should I work, I'll never be able to own a house."
Funny thing is, when I was her age all I thought about and was happy with was a roof over my head, food to eat, money to make my four yo USED car payments and a few beers after work and maybe a few on the weekend.
It was never about acquiring wealth, property or material trappings. Talk about a generation of silver spoon fed spoiled ungrateful brats!
This is GREAT!! Would LOVE to see more of these types of videos, soon!
I agree with you
This was an exceptional collection, among your other fine pieces! Great!
Hi history lounge great video 👍👍..In those days they were happy 😁 they didn't know what it was all about what we are doing in these days.. they all got together work together as a family as it is today we do have it easy but other things make it more difficult if we would only use the technology in the right way our lifes would be as good as there's.. peace ✌️.. Great video..
HISTORY LOUNGE,, I MISSED BOSTON MASS. ON MY OTHER COMMENT ,, BOYLSTON STREET,, 1910.. WOW!!! IT WAS GREAT SEEING THAT PICTURE ,, THERES ALOT OF HISTORY THERE ,, LIVING THERE IN THE 80S TO 1997,, WAS GREAT !!! THANKS.....
Such clarity on the processing of these wonderful pictures. Such a great history lesson.
Thanks. Nice to see the people a hundred years ago.
It is amazing to see the 100 year old photos that are totally different then our own. It is amzing how people lived and how we live today. Imagine how things will be in 50 years from now!
The oldest people in these pictures were born perhaps in 1830, almost 200 years ago.
Growing up in1960s..
LIFE magazine..all the National news in Photos..
Oh.the History..
Thanks & Blessings..
Very informative video and fun to watch
Thank you for a very well done set of historical photos.
Thank you to the Lord for showing historical photos of the USA. I watch with great pleasure. I discovered not long ago that my grandfather's brother came to the US around 1898. He was Polish and came from Poland.
I did not know this before. Thanks to your photos, I can imagine what kind of environment my relative lived in. Greetings from Poland.
Thanks so much for these amazing realty check videos. People, even the poorest, dressed classy then! What a difference! These should be shown in every school.
I agree with you
Thanks for not over colourizing these historic photographs. However, it would be nice to also see historic monochromes (Black/White) digitally enhanced (Highlights, Contrasts and Sharpness) too. Thanks for bringing these back. From Canada
I love the old photos showing how life used to be 👍
Thanks!
Hey, @robgould6190 - Thank you so much for your Super Thanks! I really appreciate the contribution, and I'm glad to know that you liked the video. (I'm still working on my colorization abilities, so hopefully you'll find later videos with even better colorization.) Thanks again!
❤❤❤
I always like seeing old photos, but I would not think that they had simpler times just because we don’t have information of their challenges at hand.
The masses main concern ....getting clean food and water...a shower and a clean bed to sleep in...that's about it really....similar to today without all the distractions and information ovetload!!!!
@@keithbrown8814 Those are some the basics, but certainly not the whole story. Wealth, that is money for the most part, determine who got what. Education, entertainment, politics, and the arms race of technology added many nuances and challenges to self fulfillment. Many did without what we take for granted, because they were rare, difficult to obtain, or expensive resources. But like you said, similar to today, but without the instant information overload.
be nice to see some of these places today, and how things have changed
I was in Saratoga Springs NY about 12 years ago, and it looks 99 % the same. I'll bet that's the exception though.
Thank you very much.
You are very welcome - thanks for watching!
Thank you ,the reason is my great,great grand parent,grand parent publish a book about their self's ,I seen that book when I was a kid,I book is somewhere lost,a great deal of my family died,I just wanted to know my family's history for my childrens,my kids are in the armed forces ,they so fucking stupid on bull shit ,that they are dumb,but that's ok,I do know this that life goes on and when the musical chairs all be removed,my life will stop,all I can say is thank you GOD for the ride,I have paided my way,so if you have more rare footage ad to the collection,THANKS.
1:30 I like the sign for the "TICKLER" (formally known as the 'BACK BREAKER"). It says, "REMODELED - NOT AS ROUGH AS LAST SEASON."
So, so, many have come before us. What does it all mean ? Each one of us living life slightly different from the other.
Everyone should take a look back and see where and how we got to where we are.
It seems with all of the social & tech advances, we’re an unhappy people.
I totally agree. You dont see many terribly obese people , or sloppy dressers , and people had to keep active, and work harder, and dressed modest and had better values for the most part.
Just wondering if you had to upscale these photos. They all look very sharp and clear.
Nicely done!
Thanks again, Rob - I appreciate your kind words!!!
Just drove down Lake Shore drive recently and didn't see any horse and buggies....😎
How tidy these old streets are, no litter.
I wish whoever reads these words be healthy,happy and loved.
Amazing photos just sad how much the country changed …..
This beat the News 100-0. 10.30
I would encourage you to create a series of picturesque coffee table books with these colorized pictures of the various times that made our American history and culture.
The 1900s, 1920s, the great Depression, skid rows, gas stations and diners. All of it. These photos are engaging as well as historical. No glorified Hollywood. People as we know them. Just suggesting.
Any of nw Oregon?
It's Just Pity for Check that most of these Beautifuls Parks are full of Junkies Nowadays ...
💯👍

People had SO much class back then. Not ONE person dressed in their Walmart special of pajamas or sweats (or the 1900 equivalent) & men seemed to not only always wore suits & a tie, they donned their hats as well. All this went away in the 60s with the hippy/socialist bullshit in colleges & universities.
Yep. Marxism has ruined everything it has touched.
Are you still wearing a suit every day? If not...why not?
@@warrenlewis3977 It's hard to find ones nowadays.
@@truesosense7722 hard to find what??

Lots of flagrant animal abuse. Sucked to be a horse back then.
Clearly our culture and civilization have declined since then. We’re tawdry, discontented, lacking in self respect, and very unhappy. Our prideful boasting has brought us disaster. Atheism created monumental promises, lies and disappointments.
Congrats, There was a black schoolhouse, kids and teacher, black workers in Florida, and an Emancipation Day Parade. Maybe a black man operating the Loop the Loop ride. Did you get complaints or were black Americans systematically removed by 1930? Not one person of color in your1930's Rare Photos array. I was hoping to see one shot from Negro League baseball in the 30's. You colorized photos while you de-colorized 1930's American society. I took some heat at the 1930's video for noticing the exclusion.
