Thanks to the chief registry clerk at Ellis Island and amateur photographer Augustus Francis Sherman, we are now able to witness the incredible diversity among those 12 million people who immigrated to the USA between 1892 and 1954.

The guys at Dynamichrome managed to improve on these invaluable shots even more by colorizing them and putting a cultural backstory behind them as part of the crowd-sourced book The Paper Time Machine.

People usually took all the valuables they had and dressed in their finest clothes for the trip, showcasing the same incredible diversity that laid the foundations for what we know as the USA today.
