28 More Old-Timey Photographic Proofs That People Aged Way Faster In The Past
If you've seen these threads before, this concept will not be new to you, but we new have EVEN MORE PROOF that people aged at a seriously rapid rate back in the day! People of the internet are convinced that people aged WAY faster in the past and there are PLENTY of Reddit threads about it.
Old photos are beautiful to look at and probably one of my favourite things to do, but I have to agree, people do look a lot older in old-timey pictures. Maybe it's camera quality? Makeup?
Or maybe is really is just 'US' ... although, it's hard to believe that we've done something RIGHT when it comes to ageing after being told for so long that we've done so much wrong (sugar and carbs!!!) Anyway, sit back and enjoy people's submissions of their teenage grandparents looking all kinds of 30 and 40 years old.
