WTF Photos From Old Times

[zephramc]

A collection of strange b&w pictures. I don't know why, but I thought the KKK ferris wheel was funny. I also liked the Central or South American Nazi basketball team. Enjoy...

That isn't a Nazi Basketball team. The Swastika was a symbol of good luck going back thousands of years before the Nazis took it as their symbol. The photo is dated 1908, so it carries no Nazi stigma.

Most of the photos are of showpeople.

Still it was a fun look into the past.

Oh it's way older than Buddhism, it's found back to the Neolithic.

Yes, that bit of info figured heavily in an old Night Stalker episode.
