Kind of a neat concept, but not really fleshed out very fully. The idea is the compare specific photos of "then" (any time more than 50 or 60 years ago) with similar recreated photos of "now." There are some wonderful ones: women railroad workers from 1918 facing their counterparts from 1990, a northern TN juke joint from 1920 and a current club, Tupperware parties from the '50s and the '90s.

I just wanted a lot more, I guess. Less industry, frankly, more people stuff. All the industry pages were boring. To me.
