BS: Historic LOL Cats ...caption

"We thought that the earliest lolcat that was ever found was from 1905, but thanks to Cheezburger Frend tessm, we've discovered that there were even OLDER lolcats from the 1870s!

During the 1870s, photographer Harry Pointer took pictures of his pet cats sleeping, eating, or just being cats. He then started adding captions to make the picture more entertaining. Pointer ended up making 200 of his own lolcats as part of his "The Brighton Cats" series. The spelling and grammar may be a bit different, but it's clear that even in the 1800s, cats have still been wanting that elusive cheezburger."

Sorry, Jack, but all Facebook members can view the image. It's easier for me to post images on Facebook than post them to my website (my wife has t do that for me).
