Very fascinating indeed.  I had no idea that many of those old photos were altered.

OMG! That quote on Castro's pic....holy sh!t  :rolling:

Quote
I discover my photographic death.
  Do I exist?
  I am a little black,
  I am a little white,
  I am a little sh!t,
  On Fidel's vest.

No,  it's more attracted to  silence  in the form of  spaces. 
Or maybe not  ...  see what we mean by not being  repeatable  ???
I guess that wasn't subtle enough to bring out the bug...
Ok   this is the last   time   I'll try to get this STOOPID  bug to show up...
