Old pictures from history

paulftsk, thanks for these, they are awesome.

Also, please link to your source. I know these aren't your work, and there's got to be a location from which you gathered them. Thank you.

 

Wow, really amazing pictures. I'm a real history buff. I could literally just sit here and stare at these in awe!

If I could rep I would!

 

Guys show some freaking respect, this is history. This is better than what any LOH has posted lately, BAZINGGA!!!

 

So from where are you getting these files or the pictures scanned?

Certainly you didn't take them. They're great, but I wonder if there are a lot more.

 

Looks like they are coming from here.

Which could he him and he is just posting them there first. If so then I'm not sure what the source for those are.

 

Where at?

We're setting up a game for tomorrow, here http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=166092&page=175

They want you to come so you can show them how a real FT is shot.

 

This is from either 1961 or '62.






From 1964. Westheimer @ Loop 610 looking east.





From 1961. That's Sam Houston Coliseum on the right side of the picture.


There's a lot more old aerial photos of freeway construction in and around Houston here: http://www.texasfreeway.com/Houston/historic/photos/houston_historic_photos.shtml

 

That can't be him. It says in this post he's 6.1 180 and we've seen him shooting silly free throws... so... it's not him, or he's lying about his height, unless both are also lies. http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=160282641&p=1209138081#post1209138081

I wonder why I'm not getting answers to my questions from him.

 

What's truly stunning is that the Nazi is still alive in the pic. How that guy didn't just pull the trigger and waste him after the hell the Jews had been put through is beyond me.

 

Isn't it a bayonet? Surprised not to see the knife part inside the back of the Nazi's neck.

 

Y'all should check out the "Then and Now" books by William Dylan Powell. I have his Austin and Houston books. Really great stuff.

He literally said in the first post that he got this from the misc -_____-

Also, this pic is amazing

 

The same website links to a 1963 story in "Texas Highways" about that section of I-45 being named one of the most scenic highways in the country.

Yeah, but what literally is "the misc"?

What, is everyone supposed to know what "the misc" is?

Why not just LINK us to "The Misc" instead when there are that many?
