etc etc

i u don't know any, just websites of old pictures in {american} history is fine.

Answer 1

Am not sure if this applies, as it's not animated, but I have a picture postcard that my great uncle mailed to his mother from the marine corp basic training program in the carolinas during world war one. it shows a bunch of men on their bellies shooting rifles. its pretty cool, actually. let me know if you'd like a copy, I have it scanned into my computer.

Answer 2

The postcard of someone pointing and saying "I want YOU in the U.S. Army" might not be an American President. It might be Uncle Sam, an invented figure that represents the United States. The president during WWII was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, or FDR.

Don't forget that you can search Yahoo or Google or other search engines just looking for images.

And for more images than you can ever imagine, visit the Library of Congress. You can wander for days.

Answer 3

www.ahgp.org would love to have them on their site I am sure of it. It is the american heritage genealogy project. People who do genealogies enjoy seeing some of these that were apart of their ancestors lives. Go to that site and take a look around. Cindyslist may be of service to you too.

Answer 4

Just a guess, but the New York Public Library has thousands of images on line.
NYPL.org
