Unironically, yes. WW2 is probably the best era for finding replicas (or originals) of just about every minute detail of period uniforms.

Very dieselpunk. WW1 was wild.

Mixture of places. Most I get from Rarehistoricalphotos. Many I get from Wikimedia commons. Some I google, when I have a piece of historical trivia I know but no picture to go with it. When I feel adventurous, I search online national archives, found some good Ethiopian pics in the Polish archives a while back.

If memory serves, only the actual expedition members died, while the crew aboard the Terra Nova survived.

Thank you! I just try to keep a little life in these historical communities!

The man who took these pictures was an early innovator in color photography and patronized by the Tsar, so he had a lot of opportunity. Some very gorgeous work, I love it.

Pros:

  • Cool way to die

Cons:

  • Literally none

More seriously, I believe they're very fuel/energy efficient, but generally have stability problems.

As an E-Bike user, I endorse this statement, but I think a vehicle that weighs a literal ton tipping over might be a bit more trouble than a bicycle doing the same.

Exciting things, I would presume.

I came across a series of good monowheel pictures, couldn't just pick one!

Well, you still had to pay for all of this. It was just additionally limited how much you could purchase - with what is shown here being, then, the 'maximum'.

Oh, tea can use milk, right.

YOUR WHAT?

For the best, but I can't say I'm not morbidly curious as to what the result of one of these monsters would look like. A flurry of feathers and falling bird corpses, I would expect.

Landlords?

At first I read that as "Millions of birds" and was thinking of the Four Pests Campaign

19th century Brits: "Surely the Free Market(tm) will correct this massive humanitarian disaster!"

The Free Market: [does nothing]

Probably it wasn't a great contemporary look, either.
