A vintage Polish newspaper page features the heading "Czy wiecie, ze" ("Did you know that") by Henryk Archacki. The page includes several black-and-white illustrations: a portrait of a person on the left engaged in an activity involving a funnel or sand, a small drawing of a gold-processing setup, a portrait of another individual on the right, and a panoramic illustration of a seaside scene with piers and water activity. Text surrounds and captions the illustrations, providing explanations for each highlighted fact.
