Pictures haven't always been as clear and of as great quality as they are today. When comparing the cameras of then to those of now, we know the older cameras didn't have the clear resolution we have today, but they were the best for the 19th century.  Here are a couple of pictures taken with the cameras of old.

1. Two men having a conversation. They're definitely talking politics or the economy.
