I've seen this kind of colorization work before, but never these specific photos, and never quite this well done.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

While it was a great job, I feel it detracts from the originals too much. I guess I'm just an old fogie.

Darwin still looks like Ebeneezer Scrooge color or not.

I like the 40's...I like the clothes...the attitude...

I've always heard if you long for the good old days, just turn off the air conditioner. ::unknowncomic::

Will Rogers never met Barack Obama. He would not like Obama.

I hate liberals. Liberalism is a disease that causes severe brain damage after it tries to suck knowledge and history out of yours.
