40 OLD PHOTOS from 1850 ❗😱 Before 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 changed the WORLD ‍🏭

Some of the images show evidence that the comb was yet to be invented.

Any photo taken at ANY point in the 19th century was taken AFTER the Industrial Revolution took off, not BEFORE it. The Industrial Revolution started in 1700, with Jethro Tull's invention of the horse-drawn seed drill, which dramatically improved crop yields. In in 1712, Thomas Newcomen's steam engine made dramatic improvements in efficiency compared to the very primitive steam engine designed by Thomas Savery in 1698. That invention allowed for deep coal mines which would otherwise be unworkable to flooding, and greatly reduced the price of coal. Then came James Hargreaves' 'Spinning Jenny' in 1764-65, which allowed the industrialisation of the textile industry - and, in 1765, James Watt made yet another crucial breakthrough in the steam engine, whereby it not only produced greatly more power per ton of coal, but also had a rotary shaft output, making it idea for powering mass-production textile mills and engineering works. Long before 1840, the basis of modern transport was in place. In 1802, William Symington built the first practical steam vessel, the tug 'Charlotte Dundas', and in 1829, George Stephenson made steam loco hauled trains a viable and efficient proposition. Tull, Newcomen, Savery, Hargreaves and Stephenson were all English, and Watt and Symington were Scots.

I knew the president in question!! 😀 I didn't know his place in history as told. Thank you for these mid 19th century pictures! My favorite is the one of the 2 women gleaners.. reminiscent of Naomi and Ruth..! Such a tender story..of our kinsman redeemer..

These pictures give us a view into a bygone world. These photos provide us a glimpse into this world.

It’s wonderful to see the pictures. Anyone can be wowed and amazed to see how the cities where in 1850’s to now. Showing famous people photos were amazing to see how they really look like. Thank you again.

Thank you so much for the pictures. I have extremely low vision (so bad, I can no longer drive). Even though the print was rather small, you kept the pictures up long enough, that I could read the caption & also enjoy the pictures. So thank you again.

I knew Martin van Buren as soon as I seen him. To get my American citizenship I had to learn about American history, and president's where part of that test.

Martin van Buren, never knew of any photos of him until now. thank you!

I love the Tartarian ‘Old World’ buildings!

Hauntingly ethereal cello with matching photos... Chilling.

Very enlightening to see these old photographs. Thank you.

I like all of the pictures. It's interesting to see how countries look back in 1850.

Have you ever looked at an old photo and wondered, was that me in a previous life? Have I been there before? Have I walked down that road many times?🤔

The industrial Revolution started in 1760, long before this time period

1850 before the industrial revolution? Say what?

The carriages in the photo shown from 10:03 so strongly remind of the cars of the 1920s that you downright could believe them to be such cars. This means that through the industrial revolution the world has perhaps not been changed so very much, in the end.

The Industrial Revolution is generally agreed to have started around 1780.

The Parker House Hotel looks to have early motor vehicles parked in front of it ? This can't be right.

The industrial revolution was in full swing in England long before 1850. But then thats where it started.

the music is sublime thank you so much
