- Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17"important" = "old and quite good"?
I liked the photos, but "most important pictures throughout history" is ridiculous hyperbole for these. - BigglesPiP, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15These are important?
I was expecting stuff the scale of Red Square, Kennedy assassination, The Moonlanding. - rhoadesb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I found this picture interesting.

I did not know a moose could be domesticated. I'm presuming that they are much less so than say, a horse or a dog, etc.. - onionizer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5That's the point I was trying to make.
- mike81890, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4i was thinking... Hindenburg, mushroom cloud, etc
- EviLiu, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4You'd think for being so important, they would have taken them in color. :)

- onionizer, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5@sofa: In fact I don't get them, 80% of those picture are native-indian-american related, wich personally, being italian, makes not much sense among all the other random portraits/landscapes...
- funkspiel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This is some boring ass *****.
- DaddiCade, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Some of the most important pictures throughout history"?
Surely, "Some of the most important pictures throughout AMERICAN history? - tiners, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2ooh yeah...This is stuff Ken Burns documentaries are made of...
thumbs down on the significance hype, but they ARE beautiful - onionizer, on 10/12/2007, -10/+11EDIT: Some of the most OLD and MEANINGFUL pictures throughout AMERICAN history.

- sofaKing812, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2Dude, what is up with the "EDIT:..AMERICAN history"?
While a lot of the photos were American, there were some good albums that were not.

Great site though, I enjoyed seeing so many pictures of things that have sort of passed us all by. It's a nice history lesson.
