19 Photos That Look Like Time Travel

These days, it's hard to look at a photo and trust that it hasn't been touched up in some regard. Yeah, that Photoshop is a heck of a thing. But, as you're about to find out, sometimes you don't need all that image tomfoolery to make your audience second-guess what they're looking at. Sometimes all you need to do is, well, just take the damn picture.

We're talking back tattoos (of dragon's no less - looking at you here, Ben Affleck) from 90 years ago, the last telegraph station in India closed in (gulp) 2013, thousands of color photos from tsarist Russia, Cuba's got quite the collection of classic cars, hipsters riding skateboards through Central Park in 1965, and China using steam engine trains in 2015.

To help illustrate all this insanity, we asked our readers to find pictures that absolutely do not look at all like the year they were taken in. They did not disappoint.
