18 stories in old photos that are hard to forget (19 photos)
There are some photographs that require no explanation. They speak to us in the language of emotion.
This is the bright smile of a girl with tortillas in Texas, a charming, cheeky dog stealing from the mailman, and the tears of sincere remorse of young garden thieves. Here, Charlie Chaplin looks at his beautiful muse, a Red Cross dog tries on a gas mask, and fishermen's daughters pause for a moment, upside down, as if floating between heaven and earth, reveling in the carefree moments of childhood. Scroll, explore, and remember that the world was different, but always alive.
