  Wow, they really are. I think they are colorized. Here one comparison of the original [0] (taken in the 30s/40s!) in comparison to the image on Wikipedia [1] [0] http://loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsac.1a34931/ http://loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsac.1a34931/ [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter#/media/File:ConsolidatedWomenWorkers.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter#/media/File:...

    Nope. It's why people still to this day can't let go of Kodachrome.

      The first thing I thought when I saw those photos was — large format Kodachrome. Those clearly have the color pallet of Kodachrome and many of those old WWII era propaganda color photos were shot on 4x5.
