There are a lot of moments in history that deserve another look. While old photos were printed in black and white, we now have the technology to bring them to life in color! If you ask us, the monochrome scheme did not do them any justice at all. We are glad that others thought to colorize these old photos. They are delightful to see and will take you on a walk down memory lane. Just a word of warning: some of these photos are not appropriate for all viewers. It is a good idea to proceed with caution!
Mata Hari Was A True Icon👈👈👈👈
The gorgeous Mata Hari was a spy and dancer who took the world by storm. People have called her a feminist, a courtesan, a spy wannabee, and more! Regardless of these labels, we know that her story is difficult to replicate. She had no qualms about diving into exciting ventures, although it resulted in her undoing as well. This is what Ted Brandsen, the National Ballet director and choreographer, had to say about her: “What fascinated us is the story of a woman with an incredible lust for life and a powerful instinct to survive, and to reinvent herself and to transform herself. She had a lot of horrible things happen to her and she managed to somehow give a spin to it and find her way out.”

Giving A Fellow Hollywood Star The Side Eye
There is nothing new about Hollywood frenemies! Check out this photo, which shows Sophia Loren with her head perched next to the bust of Jayne Mansfield. It seemed like the latter crashed a party of sorts! The truth was that this was taken during a Paramount party that was supposed to celebrate the stateside arrival of the Italian star. It took place in Beverly Hills in 1957. Seated beside Clifton Webb, the celebrant was seen bombarded by her colleague’s assets. This was probably a publicity stunt for Jayne Mansfield, although Loren was caught in the shot. Loren said that she could not tear her eyes away from Mansfield. On top of that, she has always declined to sign prints of this particular photo.

Entering The Jaws Of Death Without A Clue
Soldiers from Canada, England, and the United States changed the tides of the war by storming the beaches of Normandy! A lot of young men in service knew that they might never return home once they entered the fray. Tom Jensen served as a sergeant with the 626th Engineer Light Equipment Company. He told the Chicago Tribune that other soldiers did not even know their destination before they arrived there. “They didn’t tell us anything we didn’t need to know. Heck, some of the guys on our ship thought we were headed to Japan, not Normandy. Just months earlier, we were either in high school or working odd jobs. We weren’t soldiers, at least not yet, said the vet.
