WampaWear Gallery

The phrase “a picture is worth a thousand words” was popularly attributed to Confucius. Anyway…..to us, it’s a simple notion that applies to many aspects of our lives, but especially to historical photography of our hobby that turned into this business – Wampa Wear. Sometimes, one simple picture can tell you more about history than any story you might read or any document you might analyze.

These photographs all tell stories about the historical and famous figures that we met or events that we done or “trooped”. Once taken simply to document their present, they now help us witness the past. Many photographs only become iconic shots years later, once we understand their importance and historical context.
