I agree. Hand colored. Not as skillfully done as the Civil War ones, which are REALLY good.
Hand-colored is work stupid. Invent a new process is work smart.

Uh, no. Several of those I recognize as being part of a series of real color photographs from the period.
Despite popular misconception, color photography did exist during the first world war. I’m aware of two different processes in use at the time, a chemical process in use by the photographer responsible for several of the posted images, as well as rather ingenious method of blending together monochrome images captured by a compound camera in use by a Czarist Russian photographer.
Though I do find it amusing that you think the real color photographs aren’t as good as painted-over black&white photographs.
