Here are six volumes full of historical photographs of news, current events, trends, crazes, politicians, sports figures, movie stars and more, from around the world (but with dominating focus on Europe, America and the British Commonwealth).  Each of these six volumes runs 400 pages, and there is a photo on nearly every page (although some spread out over two pages); approximately 2000 photos in total.  All in black & white. 

PLEASE NOTE:  a small number of these photos contain disturbing images of war-time violence.
