16 Shades of Gray.



These magazine and book illustrations might have been in color in the original or meant to show colors. The earliest one is from 1882.






 Above is a 1910 cartoon with a French officer.
There's a Zouave joking in this one above.






 An 1882 illustration from the novel Nana.
