TIL the first photo was not from 1826, but in fact over 2000 years earlier in ancient egypt:

"The earliest example of a prosthesis ever discovered is not a leg, arm, or even a fake eye, it’s a toe. A big toe, belonging to a noblewoman, was found in Egypt and dated to between 950-710 B.C.E"

...the very, very first faux toe ;)

Non pun related, the egyptians were the first to grind lenses too, not used as glasses but instead inserted into statues for creepy eye effects

A blonde walks into a gas station

She walks up to an employee and says “I need a quart of 710”

Edit: read 710 upside down
