When it said "graphic content" I was expecting napalm girl.
I bet VJ day turned into HJ day later on #1
#8 Still a douche/murderer/terrorist in color
#1 They didn't know each other and the married nurse slapped the sailor after he grabbed her. The photographer described what happened a few years after he took the photograph.

setting yourself on fire? Not with today's gas prices…
All these people that say SAW THIS ON REDDIT… On REDDIT they say SAW THAT ON THE CHIVE.. so STFU
NEVER screw with Black and White…. Unless you are Michael Jackson
This is really cool seeing the images in color and I think Einstein looks like Edward James olmos? Maybe it’s just me but chive on son!
Mesmerizing! Although, I must agree with some pictures being more dramatic in black and white. Still though, all these pictures are truly amazing, and are like looking through a time capsule of color. Great stuff!!! Thanks for sharing!
#9 – Can't envision Alfred Hitchcock in color.
#11 – The colored (no pun intended) picture truly highlights the prosperity divide of whites vs blacks.
#16 – This shot was quite dramatic when news & photo spread around the world, June of 1963 in Saigon.
Che was far from being a terrorist, rapist learn your history.
#10 Pfft. Everyone knows Roosevelt had blue hair.
#16 Some men just want the world to watch them burn.
