Poor Ernest Hare! - A Humorous Photo

Post by oldphonographsteve »

Here is a rare colorized historical photo of Ernest Hare (a popular comedian and singer who recorded for Edison) reacting to the start of Prohibition! I find this photo both macabre and humorous :lol:

It is very interesting to see antique photos that have been colorized because it makes them look much more recent than they are.

It also gives us an idea of how people would look in person!

Thanks for sharing this!

Ernie was Al Jolson's understudy for a while
