People years ago were very fucking ugly.

That book is fuckin harsh. Some of the pictures completely defy belief in how mangled and fucked the bodies are. Fuck. And some of the suicides, what they were trying to do to themselves? Fuuuuck.

A little known fact about why people look so odd and fucked up in those old pictures is that they had to stand in the same position for a long time because the exposure times worked very differently, it was more like standing for a portrait. Try spending a minute standing still looking serious while someone takes your photo. You'll probably look pretty freakass.
