'National Geographic' was founded way back in 1888, so, with more than 125 years under its belt, you can bet there are hundreds of unused photos in the archive. Back in 2013, Nat Geo started a project called 'National Geographic Found'. William Bonner (the guardian of the archive collection) and his team dig up some of the most weird and wonderful unpublished photos and post them up online. There really are some incredible gems among them! These are just sixteen of our favorites from the archive! Take a look!
