Not mine (It was created by http://www.reddit.com/user/Ruzden Credit where it's due for he's amazing color work ) But I thought I would post it because it's interesting and thought you might like to see it?

Oh wow, certainly looks different to the alternative in Britain and the USA.. Seems ahead in terms of progress somehow when I think of equivalent photos

Woah, anyone else notice that the sign in the upper-left says "Australasia"? Is that the former name of the place, or a company that served both Australia and Asia?

 

 

Edit: Did some very simple research and found that Australasia is a region covering Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea, and some other assorted islands nearby.

How Historic would the Photos have to be?

Would this 1970's Photo of an SFPD Plymouth Grand Fury Count? :)

I think by being colourised, a colourless photo is coloured upon.

Found some more interesting ones.

German artillery crew firing at something. (I think a convoy or a tank?)

The U.S.S Slaw exploding during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

Hitler and Co. standing near the largest artillery gun ever built. (Gustav)

And last one, a German(?) MG position fighting in a gas attack during WW1.

(Not sure if they are a German unit or not but im just assuming because of the grenade the soldier is holding.)

^Yeah pretty sure they're German. Not only the grenades would suggest this, but also their helmets.

Although its colourised, the fact that the uniforms are grey is another pointer. Great War British uniforms were more khaki and the French blue. And as said, the helmets and grenades act as good pointers.

 

(I was about to say that it could be WW2, but WWII German helmets have a more pronounced & larger curve over the ear)
