—One of the oldest photos ever taken of a human (updated with cool new info)
From 1839. And the guy looks so cool, he could be fronting an alternative band from the Bowery, for Chrissakes. What an awesome, awesome picture. (And, no, I don’t know who he was. I don’t think anyone does.)
UPDATE: Chris (Grit Guy) found out who he is, just like that! It’s Robert Cornelius, which is a totally awesome rock’n’roll name. Link here.

I guess it would also qualify as “oldest selfie” seeing as how he took the photo himself.

You are so wrong Warren or you’re into the Photoshop thing. Look again. It is so obviously the Governor from the Walking Dead TV show. Geez Louise:-)

It seems Hugh Jackman was an even better casting choice for Wolverine than anyone knew. 🙂

I think he looks more like an earnest prog rock type. King Crimson, maybe?

I’m obviously the only one of your readers old enough to recognize a member of Paul Revere and the Raiders when I see one. Don’t try to fool me like that.

Looks like The Governor.
