Here Are The Oldest Photos Ever Taken In The United States And They Are Incredible

In 1839, the world was forever changed by Louis Daguerre, a French man considered the father of modern photography. It wasn’t long before his new light sensitive materials and developing process spread to the United States. As you can imagine, very few of these original images have survived, but there are a few photos from the 1840’s that remain intact. This video shows off some of the first photos ever taken in America!

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Love these old Daguerreotypes. I am amazed at some of those building pics at what they could do back then.

Check out the steam engine and crew.

Not much of a "cab" in those days.
In fact, not any cab at all!
