I love the way these moustaches gently poke fun at these dead white males. A carefully crafted moustache is the epitome of male affectation, allowing otherwise staid fellows to express their individuality or, depending on the era, conformity. The additions here totally change the way I perceive these men, especially the suspension bridge on the man on the right.
