A photo of man bearing a striking resemblance to American rapperJay-Z has surfaced, and if it wasn't for the fact that it was taken in 1939, you'd swear it was the rapper himself.
The image, taken by Sid Grossman, forms part of the New York Public
Library's Schomburg Center's collection... and now, the entire internet.
The 1939
image shows a man sitting outside a stone building, dressed in typical though
stylish attire for the decade: a news-boy cap and a full suit.
The man is
staring down the camera lens with a distinct sense of attitude and intent.
Best of all,
the man from the past has exactly the same poise and swagger as our very own
present day Jay-Z.
On account
of Jay-Z being 43 years old, the man in the photo is of course not him.
